Global Investment Strategy
Menlo Park, California, Us
Along with one other associate, I work closely with the fund’s Chief Global Strategist across a diverse set of responsibilities. Our team has developed and now manages a first-of-its-kind, directly-invested $2bn currency program. I support this function by identifying attractive currencies for investment over 3-12 month timescales based on my own fundamental research and assessment of macroeconomic trends. Moreover, I craft related presentation materials for internal and external uses. Our team’s primary responsibility, however, is to monitor and evaluate global macroeconomic and market developments for sources of risk and opportunity to the fund portfolio. In this way, we constitute a component of the fund’s asset allocation and risk management strategies. My role is to conduct my own analyses as well as assess new data and research in a collaborative effort with the Chief Strategist to develop the fund’s view of global economies and financial markets. We further work together to communicate these views through a variety of written materials including white papers, quarterly letters and strategy/macro presentations. These materials enable our team to communicate with the Fund’s senior partnership and Board and also form a critical component in the Fund’s investor relations strategy.
