Investment concept

Low-beta strategy for Small and Mid-cap

Lupus alpha All Opportunities Fund uses a low-beta strategy to invest in the European Small and Mid-caps asset class. This approach uses both long and short investments to target significantly lower volatility than long-only strategies. The fund is able to exploit inefficiencies in the European equity markets. It uses a combination of different individual strategies, including pair trades11 in individual stocks and sectors as well as the use of short and medium-term trading opportunities.
Within its investment universe of approximately 1,000 stocks, the fund provides a flexible opportunity to exploit equity market trends. A stringent risk management process is used to monitor the portfolio structure and its various elements. Particularly important considerations include broad diversification, strict criteria when selecting individual stocks and regular Value at Risk calculations based on portfolio holdings. Regular stress tests are also carried out to enhance the risk monitoring of this low-beta strategy.

Investment objective

The fund aims to exceed the European equity market as well as the HFRU Equity Hedged Index in the long term.

Risks

  • Concentration risk: If investment is concentrated on particular assets or markets, the fund becomes particularly heavily dependent on the performance of these assets or markets.
  • Risks connected with derivates transactions: Changes in the price of the underlying asset can devalue a derivative. If derivatives are used as part of the investment strategy, the Derivatives might have leverage effects that impact the fund more strongly than the underlying asset. When selling derivates, there is the risk that the fund will suffer an indefinite loss amount.
  • Operational risk: The fund can become the victim of fraud, criminal acts pr errors by company employees or external third parties. Finally, managment of the fund can be negatively impacted by external events such as fires, natural disasters or similar.
  • Liquidity risk: If securities are trades in a relatively narrow market segment, it can be difficult to resell them in situations where there is insufficient liquidity. 
  • Interest-rate risk: Changes in market interest rates can affect the price of fixed-income securities. These fluctuations vary, however, depending on the term of the fixed-income securities.
  • Risk of price changes: Experience shows that equities are subject to sharp price fluctuations and thus the risk of price declines. These fluctuations are particularly impacted by the earnings development of the issuing company as well as sector trends and overall economic development. 
  • Market risk: The performance of financial products depends on the development of the capital markets.
  • Currency risk: Changes in exchange rates can affect the price of fund shares.

  1. Source: Lupus alpha; gross performance (BVI method): The gross performance considers all costs incurred at Fund level (e. g. management fee) and assumes reinvestment of any distributions. Costs incurred at customer level such as sales charge and securities account costs are not included. Unless otherwise specified, all indicated performance data show the gross performance. Please note: Past per-formance is not a reliable indicator for future performance.
  2. Source: Lupus alpha; the net performance assumes a model calculation based on an invested amount of EUR 1,000, the maximum sales charge and a redemption charge (see master data). It does not include individual costs of the investor, such as a securities account fee. (To this effect, please refer to the price list of your securities account provider.) Please note: Past performance is not a reliable indicator for future performance.
  3. Volatility: Volatility is the range of variation of a security price or index around its mean value over a fixed period of time. A security is regarded as volatile if its price fluctuates heavily. Maximum loss 90 days: The maximum loss specifies an investor's potential loss if he had bought during the past 90 days at the highest price and sold at the lowest price. VaR 95 – 10: Value at Risk defines the level of loss which will not be exceeded within 10 days with a probability of 95%. VaR 99 – 10: Value at Risk defines the level of loss which will not be exceeded within 10 days with a probability of 99%. Sharpe Ratio: Sharpe Ratio is the excess return (Fund performance less money market rate) in relation to the range of variation (volatility) and shows the yield of the Fund per risk unit. The higher the Sharpe Ratio, the more yield has been generated in relation to the risk incurred. Maximum drawdown: The maximum drawdown is the largest percentage drop in value in a given period of time. It measures the amount the fund falls from its highest point to its lowest point in the selected timeframe.
  4. The sales charge is the difference between the sales price and the unit value. The sales charge varies depending on the type of the Fund and the distribution channel and usually covers the advisory and distribution costs. The Distributor will demand the sales charge at its own discretion.
  5. The management fee is the fee for managing the Fund and taken from the Fund's assets; it is paid to Lupus alpha for the management and administration of the Fund.
  6. The performance fee is a performance-related remuneration depending on the performance or the achievement of specific objectives such as a better performance compared to a benchmark. The costs may also be levied if a pre-defined minimum performance has been achieved.
  7. The hurdle rate means a specific minimum interest and/or profit threshold a Fund has to achieve in order to allow the investment company to participate in the Fund's profit.
  8. Performance fees of investment companies are frequently bound by a high wa-termark - the all-time high of the Fund. This means that a commission entitlement arises only if that mark has been exceeded.
  9. Distributing Funds do not reinvest the generated income, they pay out the income to the investor.
  10. The correlation measures the strength of the statistical relationship between two variables. A positive correlation means "the more ... the more", a negative correlation means "the more ...the less". The value of correlation is in the range between -1 (completely opposed) and +1 (completely equal). Correlations are some kind of no-tice on but no evidence for causalities which mean proven cause-effect relation-ships.
  11. The pairs trade or pair trading is a market neutral trading strategy enabling traders to profit from virtually any market conditions: uptrend, downtrend, or sideways movement. This strategy is categorized as a statistical arbitrage and convergence trading strategy.
