- [Update on latest market volatility](https://www.varcapital.com/update-on-latest-market-volatility/): Executive Summary Equities are down around 4% on the month and have drawn down around 6% from their highs now.

There is no change of terms for either the UK or EU during 2020 and this transition period is supposed to give both parties time to negotiate trade terms effective from January 1st 2021. While there is continuous press on the ongoing negotiations between the UK and EU, most talks on the end of the transition period agreement currently seem to be inconclusive. While there are rumours about the possibility of a deal coming […]

With almost all results now declared and the Tories set to secure a majority of 78 seats, everyone’s focus is again shifting towards Brexit and any potential trade deals. The analysts and economists at JP Morgan have succinctly summarised the four most likely scenarios we will be faced with: Extension: transition terms extended into 2021 – 40% probability Deal: New treaty with new trade relationship – 30% probability No deal: No new treaty as transition period expires – […]
- [Momentum vs. Value](https://www.varcapital.com/momentum-vs-value/): Introduction VAR Capital’s investment strategies can be categorised into one of three buckets, namely: Thematic, Event Driven and Value.

It assumes that recent growth trends will continue in the future. Value investing involves picking assets that are undervalued compared to their intrinsic value. This strategy hinges on the belief that these assets are likely to revert to their fair value over the long term. Historical underperformance – value has historically underperformed One of the most striking features of […]

If you need a short-term loan which is secured against an asset, bridging loans can be viable solution for resolving your financial needs. Historically, bridge loans have been used to bridge-the-gap between two long-term mortgages, but they are now used for a myriad of different purposes. Bridge financing is primarily used to service those borrowers when banks cannot. For instance, when swift access to funds is necessary for an auction purchase, or for resolving immediate debt requirements. There are several reasons why someone may not qualify for a regular loan, and instead may require bridge financing. […]
