Business Description

Investment Strategy
The Proprietary Funds generally engage in three strategies. The first is a global strategy, where they participate in the real growth of the global economy by taking ownership positions in individual public companies, either directly or through Portfolio Managers. The aim is to provide a source of public equity returns that can, over the long term, outperform diversified, easily available public market alternatives, net of fees and taxes.
The second strategy is a multi-strategy approach, where they invest with Portfolio Managers who pursue strategies other than long-only equity investing, seeking equity-like returns over the long-term with lower volatility than that of equities and a reduced correlation. The third strategy, Special Assets, involves investing in market dislocations and/ or assets with relatively low correlation to equity markets across a broad range of illiquid strategies, including equity or debt of private companies, potentially structured as drawdown vehicles with multi-year lock-ups.
