Asset Management
OUR CLIENTS BENEFIT FROM AN INSTITUTIONAL QUALITY ASSET MANAGEMENT OFFERING, AND A BESPOKE ASSET ALLOCATION DESIGNED AROUND THEIR OBJECTIVES, TIMELINES AND RISK APPETITE
We aim to generate strong risk adjusted returns by investing in liquid and listed securities across asset classes.
We invest in securities which we believe are under-priced and/ or are expected to appreciate due to a catalyst including regulatory changes, change in business model, post-bankruptcy or a corporate event such as restructuring, capitalisation or spin-off. Risk management and scenario analysis underpin all our investment decisions.
Investment Philosophy
Capital preservation under all market conditions
Delivery of consistent returns through diversification by asset class and geographies
Value and event driven investing and bottom-up analysis
Direct, single line trades where possible, to avoid layers of fees
