Investment Objective

The Fund’s objective is to provide consistent long-term capital appreciation and an attractive risk-adjusted rate of return. The strategy is expected to combine the firm’s best ideas by deploying the investment expertise of the equity, fixed income, arbitrage and quantitative teams. The low correlation among these components to equity markets will aim to enhance risk-adjusted returns.

Why Invest

Access Diverse Alternative Investment Strategies in One Fund
Investor returns will likely be harder to meet moving forward using only traditional asset classes. The Fund will seek to deliver exposure to a variety of Authentic Hedge® fund strategies that have historically been uncorrelated to traditional equity and fixed-income investments.
Risk-Controlled and Liquid
The strategy will aim to source its alpha from factors that do not compound portfolio risks (such as equity and interest rate risks). The Fund will also allow for ample liquidity.
