Man Diversified Alternatives aims to generate medium to long term investment returns by accessing a diversified portfolio using a range of alternative investment strategies, each managed by the Man Group.

The Fund offers investors a comprehensive and actively managed selection of Man Group’s extensive in-house capabilities across both quantitative (Man AHL and Man Numeric) and discretionary (Man GLG) investment strategies. Accordingly, the composition of the Portfolio will change over time depending on the Investment Manager’s view of market conditions and the most appropriate blend of available strategies. These strategies are delivered through a single investment vehicle, with a single layer of fees.

Many of these strategies are ‘alternative’, meaning they do not necessarily rely on the appreciation in value of traditional assets such as equities, property and bonds to generate a return. Instead, the Investment Manager aims to deliver returns that are uncorrelated to traditional asset classes.

At any one time, the Fund’s portfolio is expected to comprise between 6-15 investment strategies.

The fund provides the portfolio with a diversified sleeve of equities, property & bonds, with no more than 20% of the fund’s net assets will be invested in any one investment strategy.
