FFTW-UK is an active manager which aims to provide capital stability and consistent returns for clients by combining multiple, diversifying alpha strategies sourced across a broad global opportunity set. They believe that asset allocation is best conducted by a dedicated top-down decision-making team that is able to compare relative value opportunities across all fixed-income asset classes simultaneously, while bottom-up security selection decisions are best left to specialist managers for each asset class. The firm believes that specialized investment teams enable better decision making and ensure that risk management is integrated throughout their investment process. They also believe that successful management of fixed-income portfolios is highly dependent upon sophisticated risk management practices and risk tools.
