Philosophy

Carrara’s investment strategy is based on three core beliefs:

  • Ability to access opportunities across asset classes and geographies offers an excellent opportunity to deliver alpha;
  • The ability to manage risk, hedge and manage exposures can deliver enhanced risk adjusted returns; and
  • A collaborative and holistic approach to investing can improve the efficiency of capital usage.

To capitalise on these beliefs, Carrara manages a global hedge fund and seeks to achieve its investment objective via a diversified portfolio incorporating macro trading, global equities, funds, credit opportunities and exposure to private markets.

We believe this approach to investing can deliver attractive risk and return characteristics by allocating capital to investment sub-strategies under the one fund structure. This can create diversified global exposure, enhanced capital allocation and risk management and the netting of fees for a potentially better outcome.

Carrara intends to allocate capital globally across a range of markets and invest across various asset classes. The portfolio is expected to focus on G20 countries, however it may invest in other regions as opportunities arise.

While we do not set out to be a designated ESG manager, Carrara’s team have proven expertise in socially responsible and impact investing and these factors are considered as part of our investment process and macro themes.

Offerings

The Carrara Global Opportunities Fund (CGOF) is a hedge fund that seeks to invest in global opportunities with the aim of generating consistent risk-adjusted returns across a range of economic and market environments.

CGOF has a broad investment mandate allowing it to opportunistically seek alpha without being constrained by asset classes or geographies and irrespective of market environments. The Fund also aims to be globally diversified with little correlation to global equity markets. It seeks the following:

  • Alpha across currencies, fixed income, global equities, credit and private markets
  • Allocate capital according to the underlying opportunity, expected return and volatility
  • Consider ESG factors as part of our investment process
  • Create sub-portfolios that can enhance risk-adjusted returns, via hedging, adding cashflow and/or trading exposures

We believe the CGOF can be complimentary to many portfolios, particularly those with large allocations to local equities and property. We also believe that now may be a good time to allocate to a strategy such as ours given increased market volatility, heightened geopolitical risk and rich asset valuations in a world where central bank policy is creating uncertainty.
