Investment Overview

Strategy Description

Discretionary macro approach aiming for superior absolute returns in any market environment by utilizing an opportunistic trading style. We will trade across all asset classes but expect the majority of our returns to originate outside of individual equities. Management emphasizes long volatility trades. Contrary to the drift towards low volatility strategies which naturally encourages short volatility style trading, the fund seeks to capitalize on moments of expanding volatility in both directions and across every asset class. By utilizing a long volatility trading style, management does not need to employ excessive leverage which can lead to impairment and is at the heart of the extreme volatility these days.
