Volatility enhanced global equities for over 15 years
The investment process aims to deliver attractive risk adjusted global equity returns for its investors. The process employs a high conviction, bottom-up, value approach to construct an actively managed portfolio of diverse large capitalisation companies from around the globe.
The integrated approach combines bottom-up fundamental analysis and an implementation process of selling single name put options to generate option premiums which add to the returns.
The differentiated implementation process sees positions always entered into and mostly exited from using fully backed single stock put and call options. This generates premium income and provides an alternative, additional lever of returns from what is known as the Volatility Risk Premium (VRP). VRP is a proven and persistent risk premium driven by behavioural factors.
