Flexible Equity Euro Long-Short (Market Neutral) strategy
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The strategy seeks long-term capital
appreciation with minimal correlation to
the stock market while trying to keep
volatility about half that of the stock
market in which it is invested.
It generally takes long positions in
securities of European companies that
score high in the proprietary methodology
and at the same time have a short
exposure (via futures) to equity indices like
the Euro STOXX 50.

COMMENTARY
In 2017 the strategy averaged gross long exposure of 91% and gross short exposure of 67%, resulting in 24% net exposure across the
portfolio.
A reasonable benchmark for the fund’s performance is an adjusted Euro Stoxx 50 Index, which takes the fund’s average net exposure
and multiplies it by the Index return, resulting in a 2.8% performance for the year to date period. Hence, while our 4.3% performance is
satisfactory, even if compared with the 'average performance' of an equally-weithed basket of funds with a similar strategy that has
returned 1.2%, we have to recognize that:
(1) for the last 12 months we have missed our objective ofa 'high single-digit performance';
(2) our calculations ofthe strategy's total return are missing expenses and taxes;
(3) we have entered a period where our rolling 6 month total return is mostly around 0 (see the 2nd graph in the 1st page).
Our feeling is that at these generalized level of hyper low volatility there is low differentiation between stocks: this affects the quality
bias in our strategy, or, told differently, our search for discounted quality stocks is not enough to compensate for the continuing strong
momentum in cyclical, generally low quality, stocks. In any case we are firmly convinced that in the long term a strategy where we are
long a basket ofthe cheapest quality group of stocks and short the index is a valid proposition to build alpha with very low correlations
with the market.

Flexible Equity Euro Long-Short (Market Neutral) strategy_End of Nov. '17

  • 1. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Calculations presented here are derived from Bloomberg data. This portfolio is a carve-out of a strategy employed in an investment fund. Performance presented here for this strategy is gross of fees. Pag. 1 All data as of November 30, 2017 Flexible Equity Euro Long-Short (Market Neutral) strategy INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The strategy seeks long-term capital appreciation with minimal correlation to the stock market while trying to keep volatility about half that of the stock market in which it is invested. It generally takes long positions in securities of European companies that score high in the proprietary methodology and at the same time have a short exposure (via futures) to equity indices like the Euro STOXX 50.

Payout Ratio 57.2 69.8 Net Debt/Ebit 0.3 1.0 PORTFOLIO CHARACTERISTICS Long (port.) Short (futures SX5E) COMMENTARY In 2017 the strategy averaged gross long exposure of 91% and gross short exposure of 67%, resulting in 24% net exposure across the portfolio. A reasonable benchmark for the fund’s performance is an adjusted Euro Stoxx 50 Index, which takes the fund’s average net exposure and multiplies it by the Index return, resulting in a 2.8% performance for the year to date period. Hence, while our 4.3% performance is satisfactory, even if compared with the 'average performance' of an equally-weithed basket of funds with a similar strategy that has returned 1.2%, we have to recognize that: (1) for the last 12 months we have missed our objective ofa 'high single-digit performance'; (2) our calculations ofthe strategy's total return are missing expenses and taxes; (3) we have entered a period where our rolling 6 month total return is mostly around 0 (see the 2nd graph in the 1st page). Our feeling is that at these generalized level of hyper low volatility there is low differentiation between stocks: this affects the quality bias in our strategy, or, told differently, our search for discounted quality stocks is not enough to compensate for the continuing strong momentum in cyclical, generally low quality, stocks. In any case we are firmly convinced that in the long term a strategy where we are long a basket ofthe cheapest quality group of stocks and short the index is a valid proposition to build alpha with very low correlations with the market.
