Oxford Alpha Fund

Founded in 2017, the Oxford Alpha Fund aims to be the premier student investment society in the United Kingdom, producing superior risk-adjusted returns through fundamental equity research. We have grown to a team of over 60 passionate portfolio managers and analysts coming from a wide variety of subject disciplines, from both the undergraduate and graduate student body. Our platform provides a unique opportunity for students with a passion for the markets to develop their technical knowledge and develop practical investment theses. The Oxford Alpha Fund adopts a bottom-up approach that considers both individual company analysis and industry-level dynamics. We focus on quality compounders that exhibit resilience, and companies with a long runway for growth at a fair valuation. We develop in-depth research, supported by proprietary financial models built by our analysts. We adopt an Oxonian approach toward investing, prioritising academic rigour, first-principle thinking, and a deep-dive approach toward research, seeking out qualitative and quantitative sources of information that might be overlooked by the Street.
