ALL WEATHER CAPITAL

The All Weather H4 Performance Retail Hedge Fund is a long/short equity hedge fund with a nine-year track record, which aims to deliver equity-like returns at below equity levels of risk. The fund targets absolute risk-adjusted returns over the medium term regardless of market performance.

Positive returns should bear a low correlation to the market and with lower volatility than long only.

The All Weather H4 Market Neutral Retail Hedge Fund is a long/short equity market neutral hedge fund which has the objective of long-term capital appreciation by targeting an absolute return more than cash and seeks to exploit investment opportunities unique to some specific group of stocks while maintaining a neutral exposure to broad groups of stocks.

 

Investment team

The investment team is headed up by Shane Watkins (CIO), Sanelisiwe Tofile (deputy CIO) and Patsy David (head of research), supported by six equity analysts and three GEMS analysts and 1 fixed analyst.

The All-Weather Capital culture is based on hard work and persistence. We emphasize that the success of our strategies rests on the ability of the team to work cohesively and cooperatively. We do not celebrate individual stars more than individuals who are dedicated to their roles. We believe that diligence, perseverance, and execution without emotion distinguish us from our competition.
