TAKAHĒ GLOBAL QUANTITATIVE FUND
Our Global Quantitative Fund is a systematic fund designed to capture and capitalize on price trends in global markets. Using an ensemble approach, it combines several quantitative strategies in a single portfolio with the aim of creating a unique and uncorrelated return stream.
The fund has an absolute return objective and accepts volatility in the pursuit of high returns. Risking a little to potentially win a lot means losing trades are kept small, which in turn concentrates the fund’s volatility in large winning trades – an approach that is protective and lucrative at the same time. It also produces a positively skewed trade outcome, which is a valuable and effective driver of return compounding.
Many of the strategies traded inside the fund have been researched and designed since 2003. They have a long history of generating attractive returns for investors across various market environments, deriving performance from trends in rising and falling markets.
