ABOUT THIS STRATEGY
The strategy seeks to combine the benefits of low cost-efficient passive investing with the potential for incremental added value above an equity market index. Alpha strategies employed include Relative Value (inefficiencies in a company’s capital structure), Event Driven opportunities such as mergers, takeovers and index changes, Liquidity (exploiting supply and demand conditions for stocks), and Fundamental (valuation driven over and underweights vs the index).
