Asymmetry Asset Management is an investment firm that targets uncorrelated and absolute market returns by utilizing investments with asymmetrical risk/return profiles. They strive to create value by supporting emerging winners and profiting from the decline of companies that destroy shareholder value. Their investment strategy is designed to generate returns greater than 10% per annum, especially during times when equity market returns are negative or below money market returns. In contrast, when equity market returns outperform money market returns, Asymmetry aims to exceed those equity returns. However, they acknowledge that due to the need to hedge positions, this ambition may result in returns that are occasionally below the equity market. The fund operates with an emphasis on sustainable business models that can withstand global risks such as climate change, technological disruptions like blockchain, evolving corporate structures, monetary policy changes, and political shifts. They also prioritize education and communication, using the latest technology to empower investors, build trust, engage clients, and drive confidence in their asset management services. Asymmetry Asset Management focuses on industries such as Media, Education, Retail and E-Commerce, IoT and Wearables, and Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies. This broad approach allows them to capitalize on diverse opportunities across different sectors while striving to maintain a portfolio that benefits from the dynamics of the changing global economy.
