Strategy & Manager

Funds Strategy

The Strategy employs a market neutral approach that relies on stock picking in European equity markets. Investments are considered based on (i) the relative valuation of a company, (ii) the liquidity of that company; and (iii) the contribution that the stock would make to the conceptual diversification (and sectors, styles and geographies) of the portfolio.

Trading Advisor's Commentary

as of 28/03/2024

The primary alpha contributors for the month were Rheinmetall and Leonardo (defence), adding 1.7% and 1.3% of alpha respectively, as the military sector continued to be supported by substantial government investment plans, especially in Europe, and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. African Oil (oil exploration) contributed 1.1% of alpha, partially offsetting the February loss on little incremental news.
Soitec (semiconductors) detracted 1.3% of alpha after the company issued a profit warning due to their large exposure to RF-SOI, a process used in manufacturing 4G and 5G chips. Ubisoft (video games) cost 0.9% of alpha on the back of a disappointing start for the Skull & Bones game. Securitas (security services) removed 0.6% of alpha after the strong performance of February.

No other position contributed more than 0.5% of alpha in absolute terms.

The Fund has remained market neutral throughout the month and had a net beta-adjusted exposure of 0% at the end of the month. The Fund has sought both to maintain a strict market neutrality and achieve a broadly macro-economically neutral portfolio. There were 19 positions in the long book at the end of the month. The top 5 long positions comprised 40% of the Fund’s NAV at the end of the month as the Fund remained very concentrated. The Fund is highly liquid, as 100% of the portfolio could be liquidated within 1 week, using conservative liquidity assumptions.
