PCJ Absolute Return II Fund

Highlights

  • PCJ team’s highest conviction ideas: long and short
    • Leverage institutional process across Large & Small Cap Canada and opportunistic US exposure
    • Removes constraints (long-only, domestic-only, benchmark) to pursue highest conviction opportunities
    • Trade construction to eliminate beta, and isolate alpha
  • Diversified sources of alpha that are less correlated to market returns (or attractive complement to traditional portfolios)

Objectives

  • Market Neutral, absolute return strategy
  • Low correlation to the broader markets
  • Preservation of capital and sustainable returns
  • Target annualized net returns of 8% with lower volatility than equities, over a market cycle
