Key takeaways

  • Absolute Return strategies offer resilience amid uncertainty 
    By targeting differentiated sources of return and low correlation to traditional assets, they can help diversify portfolios and serve as a defensive layer. The current backdrop heightens the appeal of strategies offering genuine diversification, particularly at a time when equity–bond correlations remain unstable.
  • Expanded alpha opportunities amid elevated stock dispersion 
    The normalisation of the cost of capital has shifted financial markets away from irrational valuations towards a renewed emphasis on company fundamentals, creating greater individual stock dispersion. The result is more frequent and more differentiated opportunities on both the long and short side, where structural disruption – including AI related shifts – is amplifying this bifurcation. 
  • Seeking positive returns regardless of market direction 
    A flexible, absolute return approach aims for a consistent real return regardless of market direction, with the potential to generate positive returns in weaker periods.
