Tar Heel Capital – history of the name

Tar Heel Capital – history of the name
The Firm’s name originates from the 19th century history of the United States of America. The legend of “tar heels” comes from North Carolina, which developed rapidly at the time, generating profits from the production of tar and turpentine. During the vicious civil war the soldiers were known for their bravery, fighting so relentlessly as if their heels were covered in tar. Today, references to the legendary nickname are very popular, for instance, Tar Heel is also a basketball team of the University of North Carolina, in which Michael Jordan made his début.
