Trading Strategy: Intrinsic Value / Globally Diversified

Investment Restrictions:
4.14(a)(8) - Qualified Eligible Persons

Trading Description:
Systematic global alternative investment strategy targeting absolute return. It is diversified over equity and bond markets, currencies and commodities. Its investment edge comes from a systematic application of its proprietary measurement of Intrinsic Value.

For income producing assets, like equities and bonds, Intrinsic Value is a long-term, globally consistent potential annual real rate of Income return, incorporating objective (rather than subjective) growth and inflation rates. Intrinsic Value for currencies and commodities is calculated with reference to monetary inflation.


The aim is to hold long positions where Intrinsic Value is high and likely to fall, and to hold short positions where Intrinsic Value is low and likely to rise.


Risk Strategy:
Risk management takes place at both the individual asset level, based on exposure and liquidity, and is capped for each of the four asset classes
