Executive Summary
Blue Tower Asset Management reported a strong performance for Q2 2025, achieving a net return of 17.66% (17.96% gross), bringing the first-half net return to 27.63%. Over a third of the quarter's gains were driven by investments in Georgia Capital and TBC Bank Group. The letter primarily details the investment thesis for TBC Bank Group, which operates as the largest retail bank in Georgia. TBC's digitization strategy has driven physical branch reductions while growing customer deposits to 22.5 billion GEL and net loans to 26.9 billion GEL by Q1 2025. TBC's Uzbekistan digital expansion serves as a major growth driver, acquiring 19.7 million unique customers (nearly half the country's population) since launching in 2020. TBC Bank Group features conservative leverage (total capital ratio of 23.8% in Georgia and 23.2% in Uzbekistan) and excellent historic profitability (26.4% average ROE for 2022-2024), yet trades at a highly discounted forward PE ratio of 5.73. The letter concludes with an operational note on Interactive Brokers' automated currency conversion process.
