Long/short equity strategy focused on the global healthcare
industry. This strategy invests in all industry sub-sectors,
including companies engaged in the delivery, distribution,
wholesaling and outsourcing of healthcare products and services,
medical technology and equipment, pharmaceuticals, specialty
pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, genomics, diagnostics, and life
sciences. The Investment Philosophy is premised on the view that
specialist industry expertise and diligence are required to
understand changes in the global healthcare industry based on
evolving government regulation, healthcare technology and industry
structure. The investment team applies fundamental research and
modeling to identify material levers impacting businesses
positively or negatively and which the market does not yet
appreciate as measured against consensus views and asset valuation.
The investment team applies a disciplined portfolio construction
process, including a multi-factorial set of real-time position
level inputs guided by absolute return objectives, implied
volatility targets and liquidity requirements to structure and
trade a portfolio of these long and short ideas.
The Healthcare strategy is led by Emile
Westergaard.
