Invesco has launched a new institutional portable alpha strategy that combines traditional international equity index exposure with the firm’s global tactical asset allocation capability.
The Invesco GTAA Alpha Overlay – International Equity strategy, initially funded with USD500m last December, is designed to outperform the MSCI EAFE Index with a low correlation to traditional markets.
‘This new strategy was created in response to client interest in increasing their exposure to international equities while seeking non-traditional sources of alpha such as GTAA,’ says Kirk Holland, managing director of Invesco’s Atlanta Investment Group.
Launched in 2001, Invesco’s GTAA strategy is managed by the firm’s Atlanta-based multiple asset strategies investment team, which manages GTAA and multi-strategy portfolios for clients worldwide. The investment approach encompasses a disciplined, quantitative, three-step investment process that emphasises a wide breadth of decisions across asset classes, countries, currencies and commodities.
Invesco is an independent global investment manager that operates under the AIM, AIM Trimark, Atlantic Trust, Invesco, Invesco Perpetual, PowerShares and WL Ross brands, offering investment products and services to retail, institutional and private wealth management clients worldwide.
