Currency Alpha Programmes
We believe that currency markets are an attractive asset class for generating active returns for the following reasons:
- There are many non-profit motivated players in currency markets
- This creates obvious market inefficiencies
- Inefficiencies result in profit opportunities which can be exploited
- The currency market is the world’s largest, most liquid market
- It is characterised by very low transaction costs
- Liquidity makes it easy to enter and exit currency strategies
- Liquidity makes currency strategies less capacity constrained than other asset classes
- Deep, liquid markets facilitate market and manager transparency
- Currency strategies exhibit low correlation with other asset classes
- Adding currency alpha strategies to a portfolio offers diversification benefits
OAM offers several currency programs designed to deliver absolute returns by taking active positions on currencies using a range of different strategies. Our range of currency alpha programs include:
- Developed Markets Diversified Program
