Our approach
Built upon a foundation of mean-variance optimisation (MVO), the IFSL Titan Absolute Return Fund combines a broad array of alternative strategies, carefully selected for their ability to deliver stable returns across market environments. The fund draws from a blend of absolute return, systematic macro, credit & income, real assets, and cash-equivalent allocations to promote diversification and downside protection.
Core Allocations
Alternative & Absolute Return Strategies
Investments include equity long/short, market-neutral, and event-driven strategies managed by established institutional managers. These are designed to generate returns regardless of market direction.
Systematic & Macro Strategies
Exposure to global trends and inefficiencies through quantitative, trend-following and macroeconomic models, aiming to capture returns from diverse market conditions while limiting correlation.
Credit & Income
Selective allocations to high-quality credit such as covered bonds and short-duration investment grade bonds, offering attractive risk-adjusted yield with emphasis on capital preservation.
Real Assets & Diversifiers
Holdings in physical gold and catastrophe bonds provide inflation protection and unique return streams that are less sensitive to financial markets.
Cash & Liquidity Management
Strategic cash holdings and ultra-short money market instruments are used to manage liquidity, provide flexibility, and cushion against volatility.
