Institutional Mandates
While each of our fund solutions combine multiple strategies to achieve a specific profile and perform more than one task in a portfolio context, we offer single or an individual blend of multiple strategies as institutional mandates.
Individual Wealth Management
For high net worth individuals, we implement asset management solutions tailored to individual investment objectives and horizons within different legal frameworks. Together with the FTC subsidiary Magenhouse, the group operates as a multi-family office offering a wide range of additional services..
Investment Approach
Our investment approach is research-driven and follows the insight that diversification in today's highly interconnected financial markets can be achieved more by using different strategies and less by spreading across assets that are highly correlated, especially in stress scenarios. We aim to provide the most unique solutions possible for specific portfolio management needs and competitive asset allocation strategies. As we understand it, there are no "final" solutions for this task. All available solutions are subject to change as are the market environments in which they are supposed to generate profits.
FTC's research team is very well connected and on the cutting edge when it comes to current issues and discussions engaging the international finance and asset management community. Findings from this are continuously incorporated into the design of new solutions and the improvement of existing ones.
