Worldview Capital Management, the Swiss-based investment management firm, has launched a new fund that will focus on investments in emerging markets.
Headed by Angelo Moskov, the core investment team comprises of former members of US hedge fund QVT who have worked together since 2003 and plan to build on its past successes. Worldview’s approach is discovering deep value within a range of geographical regions – Central and Eastern Europe, South Eastern Europe, Russia and other countries of the Former Soviet Union (FSU), Central Asia and Africa – across multiple asset classes. Moskov and his team apply a bottom-up investment approach, utilising strong personal relationships in target countries and industries.
The team also maintains a comprehensive network of industry experts, professional consultants and local analysts to help conduct research and identify investment opportunities.
Moskov says: “Opportunities exist because current valuations across asset classes are driven by a lack of liquidity as well as continuing uncertainty surrounding a macro-economic recovery.”
He says: “The team is very excited to continue working together. We look forward to inviting a select number of new investors and to growing our investment portfolio in current market conditions that fit well with our investment philosophy.”
