The quest for alpha

With the rise of cheap index products, promising alpha has become the catchphrase for many active asset managers. But alpha should be more than a mirage, it should be the proof of performance. Here’s how we help you achieve alpha in three key areas of financial markets, because helping our clients achieve alpha – that’s what we do best.

In times when a handful of mega caps drive bull markets, like we have witnessed with the Magnificent Seven in recent years, passive investing seems a no-brainer. But when momentum shifts and markets turn, or rallies are broader-based, active management is the go-to strategy.
