Investment Management

Timer Capital Strategy Classification: MacroMacro: Investment Managers which trade a broad range of strategies in which the investment process is predicated on movements in underlying economic variables and the impact these have on equity, fixed income, hard currency and commodity markets. Managers employ a variety of techniques, both discretionary and systematic analysis, combination of top down and bottom up theses, quantitative and fundamental approaches and long and short term holding periods. Although some strategies employ Relative Value techniques, Macro strategies are distinct from Relative Value strategies in that the primary investment thesis is predicated on predicted or future movements in the underlying instruments, rather than realization of a valuation discrepancy between securities. In a similar way, while both Macro and Equity Hedge managers may hold equity securities, the overriding investment thesis is predicated on the impact movements in underlying macroeconomic variables may have on security prices, as opposed to Equity Hedge, in which the fundamental characteristics of the company are the most significant and integral to investment thesis.
