Long Short Equity Fund

A global directional alternative fund applying a rigorous investment process resulting in a low volatility portfolio

 

The Long/Short Equity Fund, launched in May 2008, is a global directional alternative investment fund investing in equity and equity derivatives.

 

It aims at delivering high risk adjusted returns with a low volatility portfolio. Its correlation with the equity market is significantly lower than a long only equity fund. In that respect, it presents a defensive approach in volatile or bear markets.

 

It shares with the two other funds the value, contrarian and event driven approach as well as an opportunistic investment strategy.

 

The fund is a Luxembourg SIF managed by DIMlux. It holds circa 40 positions and has a relatively high portfolio turnover compared to traditional long only equity funds. It invests mainly in Europe, the US and the BRIC. Its reference index is the HFRX Equity Hedge.
