We Manage Worldwide Equity Holdings as a Direct Investor
Polysharp Investments Limited maintains worldwide equity holdings as a direct investor for customers at no additional cost. These benefits clients by avoiding other expenses and the disappointment that frequently results from investing with active equities managers.
The Polysharp Investments Limited portfolios employ a systematic quantitative approach to global equities management. The strategy is based on renowned academic research into which qualities of equities are related to superior performance in the future. We strive to tilt towards specific characteristics historically linked with higher risk-adjusted returns using this method, known as factor-based investing or smart beta. We do factor analyses for geographic areas, nations, and industries within those regions and, ultimately, for particular stocks inside those countries or sectors.
Factor-based portfolios outperform traditional equity indexes.
Capitalization-weighted equity indices are standard. Companies with larger market capitalizations receive higher index weights, independent of business fundamentals or other variables influencing stock performance. Factor-based portfolios, on the other hand, feature a bias toward one or more of a few factors that have been shown to outperform standard cap-weighted indexes over lengthy periods.
