Alternative Risk Premia
Investment Objective
Alternative Risk Premia (ARP) is designed to deliver diversifying returns to traditional assets. The strategy targets 90 Day T-Bills + 5% p.a. return with a 10% volatility. The equity beta is systematically managed (ex-ante) to ≤ 0.2.
Description
Our team seeks to build a market neutral portfolio that does not rely on the most common sources of returns but systematically seeks to extract sources of return within asset classes to build broader, more diversified portfolios. Some returns traditionally thought to be ‘alpha’ can be explained by alternative risk premia and embody these diversifying properties.
The Alternative Risk Premia strategy seeks a low correlation to equities and bonds and can offer valuable diversification with robust and persistent returns. It is diversified across asset classes, strategies and styles. The team adjusts for investable strategy breadth and tail risk.
