Glenwood Capital Investments, L.L.C.
When managing fund of hedge fund portfolios, there is no substitute
for experience, expert knowledge and judgment. Glenwood Capital
Investments L.L.C has been selecting and combining hedge funds to
generate strong risk-adjusted returns since 19871 - making
us one of the most practiced managers of hedge fund portfolios.
At Glenwood we employ a multi-manager investment approach to accomplish
the objectives of our clients, emphasizing efficient diversification
among a large number of advisers and hedge fund styles. We focus
on selecting talented hedge fund managers executing strategies that
exploit clear market inefficiencies. We believe our investment professionals
have an edge in identifying managers expert in the implementation
of these strategies and in evaluating their business infrastructures.
The managers selected are subjected to a rigorous due diligence
process which results in a list of approved managers. Portfolios
are constructed using the building blocks of strategies and approved
managers with complementary performance characteristics. Finally,
we evaluate the managers and strategies over time and make portfolio
adjustments. Our approach is driven by three core investment objectives:
- Preserve capital, regardless of conditions in the US or global
financial markets
- Generate attractive returns and thereby increase investors'
wealth
- Produce returns which have low correlation with major market
indices
Glenwood is an established fund of hedge funds managers advising
approximately US$5.0 billion (as of June 30, 2004). Our investment
team has extensive resources in terms of both expertise and manpower.
Glenwood is well-regarded in the hedge fund community for our disciplined
approach to due diligence, portfolio construction and risk management.
Our reputation as a value-added investor enables us to access established
and new investment management talent that we believe to be exceptional.
