Asset Management
Protection First
As an independent company, we have built our business solely on our ability to manage our clients’ assets wisely. Today, as ever, our priorities are clear: capital protection first, followed by performance. Our conservatism in that respect has served our clients well – including in 2008, which we regard as a defining year.
Our track record may be summed up as follows:
- A successful 11-year track record managing an emerging market fixed income hedge fund
- Successful asset allocation and management of large portfolios and fixed income mandates in both emerging markets and investment-grade programs
- Successful management of stand-alone fixed-income mandates throughout the credit markets
Portfolio management
We offer 5 approaches to portfolio management :
- Fixed Income Only
- Fixed Income Overweight
- Balance
- Equity Only
- Equity Overweight
Conservative Portfolio
Focuses on capital allocation mainly between bonds and equities depending on the risk profile of the client.
RISK MANAGEMENT
We use the strictest risk-management methodology to construct, assess and monitor the risk exposures of the investments in our portfolios and in-house funds. In this way we ensure constant compliance with the portfolio mandate, with no possibility of deviation.
The main features of our risk management methodology are:
- Value-at-risk analysis (VaR)
- Stress testing
- Scenario analysis
- Portfolio monitoring (average duration, credit risk, weightings, ratings etc.)
- Proprietary quantitative analysis
- Investment-mandate compliance check
The RAM Capital team includes a dedicated risk manager and assistant. They are responsible for supervising these procedures, to ensure that they are carried out systematically.
Tailor-Made strategies
Upon request, we will create a portfolio strategy tailored exactly to your investment and risk profiles. This highly personalised approach can be fine-tuned continually as your situation evolves.
Fund selection
We offer our services in two main areas.
- Our primary focus is on fund selection and advisory services for investors. We pride ourselves on our principles of objectiveness, dedication, agility and integrity. With a team that represents over 150 years’ experience, and with a track record of over ten years, we have provided our investors with continuous returns.
- In addition we strive to instil our values, along with our expertise, to enable skilled fund managers to yield superior gains. This relationship also allows us to provide our investors with an exceptional level of transparency in these select assets.
Foreign exchange (FX) management
Protection and profit
Investors have woken up to the fact that currencies can be managed profitably. As a result, foreign exchange has become an important asset class in its own right.
RAM Capital can offer you a range of tailor-made tools for managing the risks and rewards of exposure to foreign currencies. These include currency overlays, FX managed account mandates, structured products on currencies, and FX consulting mandates.
"OUR SOLID BACKGROUND IN ORIGINATING M&A DEALS ENABLES US TO PRESENT OUR CLIENTS WITH ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENT OPPURTUNITIES."
M&A Advisory
RAM Capitals involvement in M&A Advisory is the result of RAM’s successful networking with the business leaders and investors. Our role will be to find projects in various sectors and propose those projects to interested parties that have an investment profile for this type of investments.
One can define RAM’s role as bringing together the Project Holder and the Fund Provider. In this regard, the selection of projects to be presented to various investors is at RAM’s discretion.
RAM Capital will present prospective lenders and investors with clear, transparent and relevant information, prepared in accordance with international standards. This information package will enable investors and lenders to evaluate transactions effectively and in the shortest possible time.
RAM Capital relationships with a wide range of potential funders (both within Turkey, Middle East and abroad) will ensure that the Project has access to extensive sources of funding and competitive pricing to enhance bankability. RAM Capital will support clients through their funding negotiation process, to ensure that they achieve the best possible and most cost effective terms and conditions.
