Investment strategy
|
The Equity Long-Short Investment Strategy is a sophisticated approach designed to
achieve consistent capital appreciation across diverse market conditions. By blending
long-term equity investments with tactical short exposures, the strategy aims to
capture upside potential while mitigating downside risks. This dual approach leverages
both fundamental and opportunistic market dynamics to deliver robust returns for
investors seeking growth with prudent risk management. The portfolio is thoughtfully
structured to balance growth, risk, and liquidity, with the following allocation guidelines:
* Long Equity Positions (80%–100%): At least 80% of net assets are invested in listed equity and
equity-related instruments, such as common stocks, preferred shares, and equity-linked securities
(e.g., convertible bonds). These positions are selected based on fundamental analysis, targeting
companies with strong growth prospects, attractive valuations, and sustainable competitive advantages.
The long portfolio emphasizes diversification across sectors and geographies to reduce concentration
risk while maximizing return potential.
* Short Derivative Positions (up to 25%): The strategy employs unhedged derivative instruments,
including stock futures, index futures, and options, to establish short exposures of up to 25% of
net assets. These positions are designed to profit from declining prices of specific securities
deemed overvalued or to hedge against broader market corrections. The tactical use of shorts allows
the fund to generate returns in bearish or volatile market conditions, enhancing overall portfolio resilience.
*Debt and Money Market Instruments (up to 20%): A portion of the portfolio, up to 20%, is allocated to
debt or liquid money market instruments, such as treasury bills or short-term government bonds. This
allocation allows a certain fixed return generation and serves as a liquidity buffer, enabling the fund
to meet 15 redemption requests, seize new investment opportunities, or manage margin requirements for
derivative positions without disrupting the core equity holdings.
* Hedging Flexibility (up to 100% Additional Hedging): Beyond the 25% unhedged short exposure, the
strategy allows for up to 100% hedging of the remaining long equity positions using derivative instruments,
such as index futures, options. This capability enables the portfolio to achieve fully hedged exposure when
market conditions warrant a defensive stance, such as during periods of heightened volatility or anticipated downturns.
