Latitude Investment Management, a boutique investment partnership, is pleased to announce the launch of its second fund, the Latitude Global Fund. The Fund is a high conviction, long-term global equity portfolio which follows a focused, style-agnostic approach to equity investment.

The Latitude Global Fund uses a similar strategy to the segregated mandate the Company has successfully run for Witan Investment Trust since 2018. Through structured idea generation, thorough research and disciplined portfolio construction the strategy has achieved strong returns for Latitude’s clients to date, throughout market cycles. The Fund was seeded by partners in the business and some existing investors in September 2020 and is now being proactively marketed to external investors. Since launch in September 2020, the Fund is up over 16% and ahead of the FTSE All World benchmark which is up 13.8%.

The launch follows a period of accelerated growth for Latitude Investment Management, with the company expanding the investment and operations teams in recent months. This will be Latitude Investment Management’s second fund, following the launch of the Latitude Horizon Fund in 2016. Freddie Lait, CIO and Founder of Latitude Investment Management, said:

“We are delighted to now be able to offer our global equity strategy to all investors through the launch of the Latitude Global Fund. This is something that we have been building for a while now, having successfully run the global equity strategy for institutional clients, and also within the Horizon Fund itself. Through our style agnostic approach, we have created a concentrated portfolio with 25-30 positions in globally diverse, large cap, liquid companies that we strongly believe will continue to create value for our investors for many years to come.”
