Tribeca Alpha Plus Fund

A long short equity strategy that enables investors to benefit from rising and falling markets, which aims to provide returns that beat the benchmark whatever the market conditions.

Fund Overview

Long short equity strategies are designed to achieve equity like returns with less volatility than the equity market, by profiting from stocks that are going up as well as those that are going down. Tribeca’s investment approach is actively managed and allows for enhanced return potential and better risk control. The Fund offers investors core exposure to the ASX, is style agnostic and provides broad-based industry exposure.

The investment team can look beyond the good news stories that are the purview of traditional long only Australian equity managers – it can take advantage of negative views of stocks and sectors, as well as weaker fundamentals. The outcome means the team can short sell stocks with weak investment characteristics and reinvest the proceeds in long positions in preferred stocks. This combination of long and short positions provides Tribeca with a large degree of flexibility and enables more active decision making.

The investment approach uniquely blends fundamental and quantitative strategies that aim to identify investment opportunities and generate returns above the benchmark. The benefits of this approach are the significant amounts of company detail that can be unearthed and used to generate insights into its future prospects and likely investment returns.

The Fund has an alpha target of 5-6%, a common target for concentrated funds; what makes this Fund different is its diversified portfolio. The Fund holds, on average, 60-70 long positions and 30-40 short positions.
