GROUP OVERVIEW
FUND OVERVIEW
The Fund’s investment objective is to maximize long-term, risk-adjusted returns relative to the S&P 500 benchmark through the creation and management of a diversified portfolio. The group employs a top-down fundamental research process designed to repeatedly identify and investigate a specific thesis related to the global macroeconomic environment and look for the best risk/reward within individual sectors and industries to reflect such thesis in the portfolio. This top-down approach is combined with an in-depth, bottom-up analysis of individual companies to uncover undervalued investments and identify the metrics that will drive price realization. The Group’s risk management process is designed to enable the fund to weather periods of volatility until research is proven right or wrong, causing alpha, rather than beta, to be the primary driver of performance.
