Dynamo Reports

Transparency in management is a highly cultivated asset in Dynamo. Besides the usual channels of communication with our investors, we usually write - since Dynamo Cougar inception – the Dynamo Report.

The Dynamo Report is a quarterly newsletter that seeks to critically analyze relevant issues of today's capital markets, and also presents our performance during the relevant period, highlighting the most significant events related to our investments.

Below you can download (PDF file) the last Dynamo reports available. To ensure receipt of future publications, please register on the Mailing menu.
