A multi-manager is a manager of
investment managers. The major difference between it and a single
investment manager is that a multi-manager does not actually buy and
sell asset classes. It manages the investment managers who do this
on their behalf. Investment Solutions' core business activity
centres on the continual research and monitoring of the
investment-manager universe in Namibia and South Africa to determine
the best investment managers, given different evaluation criteria
and investment goals. This research allows the blending of these
managers into optimal portfolios, which is done through a unique
process backed by proprietary systems and methodologies.

Typically, historical investment
returns are the only information widely available to most investors
when selecting an investment manager. Historical investment returns
are, however, not a reliable criterion as they provide no guarantee
of future returns. Investment Solutions goes beyond the measurement
of historical returns, using proven expertise that evaluates
investment managers from a qualitative and quantitative perspective
to select and blend investment managers to produce investment
portfolios that provide a less volatile return stream with improved
long-term returns. |
