-Historically, the strategy has generated returns of over 19% p.a. with a 13% realized volatility and Sharpe Ratio of close to 1.5 with downside volatility limited to <7%. A variant of this program is currently live, in China.

-The proprietary program is now being made available to asset managers, as well as investors, to implement within their investment portfolios, in several different ways and tailored to the client’s specific needs
