IIIINVESTMENTNVESTMENTNVESTMENTNVESTMENT METHODOLOGYMETHODOLOGYMETHODOLOGYMETHODOLOGY
• Investment methodology revolves around three key axes:
Fundamental, Quantitative and Technical, used in synergy.
• Wanting what the market wants vs. forecasting
We have developed a methodology based on investment discipline
and strict money management for long-term. We assess current
market conditions to define a clear money management plan, based
on scenarios with probabilities. We use rational tools, not to
forecast “the future” in a deterministic and linear fashion, but to
envision many different possible future outcomes, to estimate their
probabilities and to monitor the correctness of our decisions.

IIIINVESTMENTNVESTMENTNVESTMENTNVESTMENT METHODOLOGYMETHODOLOGYMETHODOLOGYMETHODOLOGY • Investment methodology revolves around three key axes: Fundamental, Quantitative and Technical, used in synergy. • Wanting what the market wants vs. forecasting We have developed a methodology based on investment discipline and strict money management for long-term. We assess current market conditions to define a clear money management plan, based on scenarios with probabilities. We use rational tools, not to forecast “the future” in a deterministic and linear fashion, but to envision many different possible future outcomes, to estimate their probabilities and to monitor the correctness of our decisions.
