Who We Are

We are a leading London investment firm managing assets on behalf of institutional investors, private banks, private families and individual investors across Global & European strategies.
The firm was established by Crispin Odey in 1991 to focus on active fund management with an equal emphasis on preserving capital and generating superior returns.

We have worked hard to build an investment team and a client base committed to these principles and today we continue to focus on performance and not asset gathering. Approximately half of our employees are investment professionals. Our Partners are amongst the largest investors in the strategies we run.

Odey Wealth - Private Wealth Investing

In 2008 we launched Odey Wealth Management to deliver portfolio management services, in addition to our investment funds, for private clients based offshore and in the UK.

OUR APPROACH
Odey was launched to focus on active fund management at a time when the industry was obsessed with investment indices.
Critical of the de-skilling effects of indexation and the relentless asset gathering, Crispin Odey was determined that original research and rigorous analysis should drive the investment process.

Today we remain committed to these principles: the firm is driven by performance and not asset gathering and benchmarks play no part in portfolio construction. Instead, our Managers build portfolios from first principles using judgment and primary research to set asset allocation, to understand industrial cycles and to select stocks.

This approach means that our strategies are necessarily capacity constrained. However, we have established a loyal and diverse client base and over the long term we have performed well across our strategies.
