Capabilities: Solutions & Multi-Asset
|
The Managed Futures team, part of our Solutions & Multi-Asset capability, specializes in providing high net worth and institutional investors access to multi-manager and single-manager solutions in managed futures and currency strategies. The primary objective of our funds is to provide absolute returns and diversify an investor’s portfolio with little to no correlation to traditional investments (i.e., equities and fixed income) and other alternative investment strategies. The risk/return profiles of the funds vary, dependent upon several factors, including but not limited to, 1) the trading approaches utilized within the fund, 2) whether a fund is single manager or multi-manager, and 3) if it trades a broadly diversified universe of markets or is concentrated in a specific sector, such as energy or currency. The team consists of five investment professionals who, on behalf of the funds, are responsible for identifying and allocating assets to Commodity Trading Advisors, or CTAs, who the team believes have the potential to add value to a portfolio from both a return and diversification standpoint.
Experience and expertise distinguishes Morgan Stanley’s Managed Futures team from its competitors.
