Our Investment Philosophy

CAPITAL PRESERVATION

We believe that a balanced risk-adjusted approach that emphasises stable returns and absolute (or relative) capital preservation delivers superior investment performance

NO RELIANCE ON POINT-FORECASTING

Market timing and point-forecasting simply don’t work. We rather concentrate our effort on economic scenario planning and the sourcing of assets which are likely to maintain their performance across these planned scenarios.

LONG-TERM HORIZON

We believe a long-term strategy is the best way to build and preserve our clients’ financial security. Every investment is made with a long-term view.

DIVERSIFICATION

When structuring portfolios, we aim to include asset classes and investment strategies that perform differently over various business cycles. This diversification technique can help reduce risk.

Our Investment Process

Significant reliance on sourcing and structuring dependable yield.

Our Investment Process

Taquanta employs a solution-driven methodology.

Every solution is underpinned by our client’s unique needs, risk tolerances and return expectations.

We pride ourselves on extracting excess yield across the fixed-income spectrum. This yield is either applied directly to individual fixed-income strategies or transported to enhance all other asset classes so as to generate more predictable long-term excess returns.

Through innovative thinking, powerful technology and many years of experience in both structuring and directly procuring assets, we have developed a highly efficient and dependable source of investment alpha.

As one of the largest funders of the local banking industry, we have prioritised access to a significant pipeline of all asset classes, and our entire offering is anchored to a robust credit process complemented by a rigorous and thorough ESG framework.
