About us
From Insight to Opportunity
What we do Understanding Market Cycles.
Pursuing Uncorrelated Returns.
AlphaTerra Capital specialises in absolute-return strategies, including long/short equity and market-neutral approaches.
Our philosophy is grounded in the ability to quantify, model and manage risk across diverse asset classes and market environments. We construct dynamic, multi-strategy portfolios with a focus on highly liquid instruments — large-cap equities, fixed income and currencies — in global markets.
We aim to deliver consistent, uncorrelated returns independent of broader market direction by combining quantitative rigour with fundamental insight and applying institutional standards to security selection, portfolio construction and performance oversight.
Our mission Delivering Sustainable Growth. Creating Long-Term Value
We combine proprietary quantitative models with comprehensive fundamental analysis to identify mispricing and uncover market asymmetries that others overlook. We apply a transparent, disciplined approach to portfolio management, with an investment process designed to systematically seek alpha while safeguarding investor capital across market cycles.
Recognising the inherent volatility of global markets, we maintain a robust and adaptive risk-management framework to support operational resilience and investment continuity in all market conditions.
Absolute Returns
We seek to deliver absolute returns, pursuing consistent performance through multiple uncorrelated strategies designed to generate outcomes independent of market direction or traditional benchmarks.
Integrated Research
We combine quantitative approaches with fundamental insight, applying proprietary factor models and independent research to systematically identify and capture short-lived opportunities across diverse market environments.
Risk Management
We measure and control risk with discipline, employing advanced derivatives, dynamic hedging, and calibrated position sizing to manage volatility, limit drawdowns, and preserve capital stability in all conditions.
Independence
We operate free from benchmark constraints or external influence, making investment decisions guided solely by empirical evidence, high conviction, and the long-term interests of our investors.
Investment Strategies
-
Equity Long/Short
We combine fundamental and quantitative analysis of large-cap equities across global markets to capture alpha. Positioning is informed by valuation discrepancies, earnings momentum, and capital-allocation dynamics. Exposure is actively managed to isolate stock-specific returns and limit directional risk.
-
Relative Value
We exploit pricing inefficiencies between correlated securities, sectors, or indices. Using proprietary factor models and statistical-arbitrage frameworks, we construct beta-neutral positions designed to capture relative dislocations and mean-reversion opportunities.
-
Macro Positioning
We manage exposure across asset classes, guided by our macro outlook. Themes in rates, currencies, and indices are expressed through liquid instruments such as futures, options, and forwards. This approach enhances diversification, supports tactical hedging, and dynamically adjusts portfolio exposure to evolving macro conditions.
-
Event Driven
We target idiosyncratic corporate catalysts—including mergers, restructurings, and special situations—where we identify asymmetric risk-reward potential. Rigorous fundamental research and disciplined risk structuring allow us to systematically capture event-linked alpha.
“In the short run, the market is a voting machine, but in the long run, it is a weighing machine.” – Benjamin Graham
Our philosophy rests on the belief that fundamentals determine long-term value, yet markets frequently misprice assets due to behavioural and structural inefficiencies. We seek to capitalise on these dislocations through a multi-strategy framework powered by rigorous macro, sentiment, technical, and valuation analysis. Whether establishing a long or short position, every trade reflects high conviction, a clear investment thesis, and disciplined execution grounded in a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics.
