Svelland Global Trading Fund

Launched August 2017, the Svelland Global Trading Fund (The "Fund") is a fundamental, absolute return trading strategy focused on the commodity complex. The Fund's investment objective is to deliver superior net returns to investors in all market conditions with low or negative correlation to listed equity and fixed income markets. The team will leverage their long experience in commodities to benefit from structural tailwinds driving value in the sector. These include an inexorable transition to a renewable energy future and managing geopolitical shocks and risks in energy interdependence. The fund seeks to add alpha through deep fundamental research,  its extensive network of commodity and freight market intelligence and proven commodities risk-taking experience of the team. 

The Fund brings a profound knowledge of the entire commodities supply chain and expresses asymmetric risk positions across commodity futures, freight derivatives, and commodity-related equities. The broad mandate allows the team flexibility in terms of how it wishes to express its views - directionally, relative value or often with options where appropriate.
