Our investment
philosophy.

We move quickly when we need to, quietly, confidently and steadily. We do not follow the herd. We deliberately run both an active and passive strategy. Each acts as a benchmark against the other. Both are in the Targeted Absolute Return segment with lower volatility designed in. Our MomentuM Model using proprietary monitoring of major market movements makes recommendations - which are discussed by our investment committee - with a detailed understanding of the momentum method.
