USD Leveraged Bond is an actively managed long only leveraged fixed income strategy structured as a Kristal Fund. The portfolio invests in USD denominated medium tenor (5-7 years) corporate bonds & ETFs. The strategy uses limited leverage (100-150%) to enhance returns. Instruments are selected based on relative value and diversified across sectors, industries & ratings (> BB+/Ba1/BB+). This will suit investors looking for stable returns (4-5%) and a medium-term investment horizon.

Overview: The Future Vision Equity pooled strategy invests in single name equities that are aligned with themes in disruptive industries which are likely to play a more important role in the next decade ahead. How did we identify this Kristal: From a bottom-up approach we have identified certain sectors which have the potential for commercial disruption in the future. This is related to technological development but also demographic and social trends which are likely to dominate the lives of many in the future. The core themes that have been identified are: Biotechnology and Genome research: Medical advances with the help of AI and reduced cost for genetic editing have the potential to disrupt the healthcare industry in years to come. We are looking specifically for companies in the sector of life sciences, genetic solutions for cancer treatment, Human-Machine-Interface technologies, etc. Water & Food: We may run out of clean water, and while we might not run out of food in the foreseeable future, there is certainly, a need to become more efficient and sustainable in the way how we feed a growing world population. The investments will be predominantly in companies in the AgriFood Tech space, Water companies (Technology or utility) or environmental management companies. Cybersecurity: The cost of cybersecurity at an average level has increased by over 72% in the past 5 years, and 13% alone from 2017 to 2018. An Accenture Study about the cost of cybercrime states that the Value at Risk from Cybercrime in the global economy is rising, and so is the cost of prevention. Machine Learning & AI: Dubbed by many as the future of everything, living in a digital society with vast amounts of data means more growth in the space of Machine Learning & AI. Renewable Energy: We do not think that global warming is a hoax, therefore investment in the renewable energy space will continue to grow and transform the way how we produce and consume energy in decades to come. Investments can for example take place in companies which are either REGenerators or provide technology that reduces carbon emissions. Selection of Companies: Through thorough fundamental research of the companies from an initial shortlist, we identify the ones with a technological or commercial advantage over others
