Macro strategies
Helping you generate long-term returns while managing short-term risks, using our macroeconomic thinking and taking a dynamic approach to investments.
Our approach
In our experience, one of the biggest issues facing investors is the challenge of generating enough return to meet their objectives. We believe an understanding of the macro environment is key to doing this.
We have been successfully managing multi-asset portfolios using our macro thinking since 2003, giving us a fundamental understanding of how to rotate capital across the full asset class spectrum, built across multiple market cycles.
Our approach today combines this macro expertise with our capabilities across security selection and hedging, and importantly draws on our ability to understand our clients’ needs.
