Overview

STANLIB’s Multi-Asset team adopts a unique multi-dimensional investment framework as well as a proactive approach to risk management to deliver investors stable and real returns over the medium to longer term whilst protecting their capital. Risk management is integral to the investment process, and portfolios are constructed on a marginal contribution to risk basis. Portfolio construction begins with the setting of clear risk parameters that are deliberate and not an afterthought.

 

Our multi-dimensional framework enables us to identify risks and opportunities across the global investment landscape. This framework includes several dimensions and is not solely valuation-focused. This allows us to draw on a pool of possible opportunities offering different risks, asset classes, geographies and sectors. We evaluate our performance not only on a pure return basis but, more importantly, on a risk-adjusted basis.

 

We take a broad view of markets and interrogate our views. Our scenario-based tactical asset allocation process then allows us to, take into account a wide range of possible eventualities that could affect markets and the consequent implication for specific assets, their volatility and in some cases correlations. This process forces us to factor in alternate outcomes and contrary views. It gives us a distinct advantage in managing risk and makes our process dynamic and versatile in an ever-changing market environment.

Investment Philosophy

STANLIB Multi-Asset team’s philosophy is anchored on three core beliefs:

 

  • Risk is inherent in all assets, even cash. Cash delivers a poor real return in the long term, and is always denominated in a particular currency, so currency risk must be actively managed.
  • Generating long-term returns is all about managing risk. Managing risk in a portfolio requires more than simply diversifying with traditional asset classes where correlations vary in times of market stress as correlations generally converge. Preserving our clients’ capital during these market events requires a different approach to portfolio construction.
  • The concentration of risks in equities requires careful management. It is important to include a wide source of returns rather than relying on equities as the predominant growth asset.

Investment Team

Portfolio managers within the Multi-asset team bring relevant but differentiated skills drawn from their diverse backgrounds.

 

Differences of opinion and perspective are actively encouraged and accommodated. This is the bedrock on which our philosophy and thinking is built. It is a significant element that makes our team different from any other.

Overview

STANLIB Fixed Income is one of the largest fixed income asset managers in South Africa with one of the strongest and broadest fixed income capabilities in the country.

We have a compelling investment philosophy and process which has delivered great results for our clients over many years and different market environments. We add value through the implementation of a multi-dimensional approach to active management using interest rate cycles, yield curve shape changes, duration management, credit positioning and relative value analysis.

Investment Philosophy

STANLIB Fixed Income believes that over time fixed income markets are efficient and will revert to fair value levels. In the short term inefficiencies can exist that lead to valuations deviating from these fundamental values, providing tactical opportunities to generate enhanced returns. As an active fixed income manager, we regularly exploit these inefficiencies to add value to our client portfolios.

 

We believe that by employing our extensive experience, resources, expertise and leveraging off the size of our business, we can exploit market inefficiencies, by actively identifying diverse sources of value-add opportunities.

 

Our investment philosophy is strongly rooted in economic fundamentals.  All our investment decisions are backed by sound research, market experience and our ability to execute quickly when markets move. Unlike many other fixed income managers, we do not simply buy and hold but stay close to the markets to identify and take advantage of opportunities. The core of our investment philosophy and process has remained the same for over 20 years. This has created consistency and team-wide deep knowledge of what we do and why we do it.

Why Us?

We are one of the largest fixed income managers in SA, which gives us a competitive advantage in negotiating preferential interest rates on investment opportunities. We have a highliy experienced team who create tailored solutions. As a significant industry player, we deliver consistent outcomes.

Investment Team

Our seasoned fixed income team is unrivalled in size and experience and are flexible, dynamic managers who analyse the whole fixed income market, giving us a broad view on opportunities and risks. Whether it is the short end of the curve or long end, we can take a view across the fixed income spectrum, which gives us greater flexibility to realise our investment ideas.
