With the growth of the global asset management industry, managers have emerged to cater for every conceivable investment need.This leaves both adviser and investor with the complex task of not only allocating money but trying to predict which investment styles are going to be in fashion, in which part of the world and for how
long! Furthermore:-
How do you identify those managers which
are most Iikely to outperform?
How should they be combined to create a coherent strategy?
WI!! they continue to perform in a changing investment environment?
How do you monitor investments in terms of performance and risk?
Despite many studies and regulatory warnings that past performance is an unreliable guide to
future results, many advisers are unable to advise on any other basis. Consequently, investors are regularly encouraged to buy funds at the peak of their performance cycle and then sell at the bottom.
Handscombes’ solution is a proven investment service that has been developed over the past 20 years for the professional market, local authority pension funds and other institutional investors. Known as the manager of managers approach, it is now available to private investors through a partnership we have developed with some of the Worlds leading exponents of this service.
Our aim is to:
•
Retain the services of the world's best investment teams.
• Neutralise investment style by blending managers of differing styles within a given portfolio. This significantly minimises volatility and risk whilst producing consistent, predictable returns which will normally outperform the indices.
• Employ specialist managers to run specific mandates within portfolios and track every trade to ensure adherence to mandate guidelines. Managers then concentrate on the most important area they can directly influence - stock selection. This adds significant value to performance.
