“Superior Returns, At Below-Average
Risk.”
The philosophy is
simple: Reduce the erratic return stream that investment managers
display, while increasing the long-term performance to deliver
upper-quartile returns.
The investment environment
in Namibia and South Africa changes constantly, with the number of
financial service providers and investment products having increased
dramatically over the past 10 years. There are many investment managers
that adopt varying approaches to managing investments, making it more
difficult to select one that is most appropriate for an investor. In
this dynamic environment it is imperative that investors adopt a
defined, disciplined and effective selection criterion when choosing an
investment manager.
Investment Solutions assists
in this process by thoroughly researching and reviewing the investment
managers before ranking them. It then constructs solutions that best
match an investor's risk profile. |

The Benefits of Investing with Investment
Solutions
The objective of Investment Solutions'
multi-manager approach is to combine the best skills and styles of
investment managers to reduce the typical return volatility they
display, while optimising returns. As investment managers may have
different philosophies, their investment-management styles may also
differ. By investing in a portfolio that provides diversification across
different managers, an investor is given exposure to different market
cycles and the differing return streams generated by these managers. As
markets move between cycles, the exposure to different investment styles
benefits investors at different times.
Apart from diversification, the
Investment Solutions multi-manager philosophy assists in identifying and
selecting investment managers with the best skills and investment styles
to ensure investors' return objectives are met. Investment Solutions has
a platform to provide flexibility and cater for different investor
requirements. Various investment portfolios are constructed and
investors can select those that best meet their needs. Investment
Solutions can also tailor retirement fund-specific portfolios to meet
the specific needs and requirements of a retirement fund. |
