Baywater Asset Management

The Baywater Alpha Fund is managed with an active trading approach across a wide range of international markets. The aim is to deliver absolute returns regardless of how the general market performs. Unlike traditional funds that invest in an asset or instrument, we are actively trading those assets and instruments in order to achieve market uncorrelated returns. The Fund is a variable weighted combination of 11 strategies. Trading is done across various financial markets including Foreign Exchange, Commodities and Indices. We only trade in the most liquid international markets in order to minimize risk and ensure scalability and liquidity at all times. The strategies are designed to optimally perform in trending markets and can have a bearish or bullish view. To minimize equity curve volatility, the Fund is highly diversified across multiple markets and time frames. It aims to capitalize on both short-term market volatility as well as the long-term, macro trends. The strategies follow a systematic approach and each strategy has a highly favourable positive expectancy with key variables monitored continuously to ensure that the expectancy remains favourable. Multiple filters are applied to ensure strict risk management principles with a maximum risk exposure of 0.5% of the total Fund value per trade opened. Combining these principles have enabled us to deliver exceptional, high double-digit returns, whilst simultaneously keeping drawdowns and return volatility to a minimum.
