"Reflecting on a recent Latin American tour, Vltava Fund warns of the permanent dangers of weak institutions and inflation, while detailing its new long-term compounder investment in US payments firm Corpay."
The Vltava Fund shareholder letter for January 2026 focuses on a recent multi-country trip to Latin America. The manager presents three core lessons: the relative size and economic output of global continents, the destructive nature of weak institutional frameworks and political populist experiments in South America (the 'resource curse'), and the corrosive reality of inflation and hyperinflation. Although there are signs of political shift back toward market-oriented policies in countries like Argentina and Chile, Vltava remains highly selective. In the portfolio, the fund added shares of Corpay, a US-based corporate payments technology firm with highly recurring transactions, strong switching costs, and solid capital discipline.
