Our fund is centred on a portfolio of single stock equity investments, with cash and non-equity investments alongside which are intended to produce ample returns while reducing downside risks.
We embrace volatility at the individual investment level, while continuously endeavouring to reduce it at the portfolio level. This can be done without the need for short strategies or leverage by using the primary findings of diversification theory, behavioural finance, and by taking a genuinely long term approach to every investment we make.
At Latitude we only invest in very liquid instruments. Our stocks are generally larger than £10bn in market cap and our non-equities include government bonds, FX and gold.
The current daily liquidity of the Latitude Horizon Fund is at least 97%. The issue with illiquidity premiums rising will affect larger groups more starkly than boutiques, another reason in our opinion to invest in the latter!
