PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

"Tacticals" portfolio management

The "tactics" component plays a very important role in portfolio management, which is divided into three performance drivers: "Core Book”, “Dynamic Hedging Book” and "Pair Trades Book".
In greater detail, the strategy seeks to boost performance through a careful selection of stocks using a top-down thematic approach (“Core Book"), dynamically managing portfolio exposure to stock market trends (“Dynamic Hedging Book") and adopting a market neutral strategy, taking long and short positions within the same sector (“Pair Trades Book”).

"Stock markets can go through highly volatile phases that tend to bring the whole market down; in such cases we work on dynamic asset allocation, reducing exposure very quickly without dismantling single positions."

The benefits of dynamic exposure

High Potential funds are flexible products and aim at containing the drawdown during stock markets downturns, through portfolio hedging strategies that help to drastically reduce net equity exposure when volatility requires it.
