Risk & Governance

Oversight built in,
not bolted on.

How we protect capital. Position-level limits, liquidity awareness, drawdown controls, and independent oversight – documented at mandate level and reviewed on cadence.

Risk Framework

Four pillars of risk discipline.

– 01

Position Sizing

Every position earns its size through explicit conviction, liquidity profile, and downside scenario, not narrative.

– 02

Liquidity Governance

Portfolios are sized to be exited in orderly fashion, with explicit limits on illiquid exposure for each mandate.

– 03

Drawdown Controls

Tolerance for drawdowns is defined at mandate level, reviewed independently, and acted on before narratives change.

– 04

Independent Oversight

The risk function is independent of the investment team, with authority to raise concerns and trigger review.

Risk Process

Five checks, applied to every mandate.

A disciplined sequence that operates alongside the investment process, not after it.

  1. – 01

    Mandate Risk

    Define drawdown tolerance, liquidity, and benchmark.

  2. – 02

    Pre-trade Check

    Position sizing, concentration, and limit compliance.

  3. – 03

    Ongoing Monitoring

    Daily exposure, liquidity, and thesis review.

  4. – 04

    Escalation

    Defined triggers and paths to the risk committee.

  5. – 05

    Periodic Review

    Structured review of mandate-level risk outcomes.

Governance

Four layers of oversight.

– 01

Investment Committee

Oversight of mandate approvals, strategy changes, and significant position decisions, with documented rationale.

– 02

Risk Committee

Independent oversight of the risk framework: limits, escalation, and exception review.

– 03

Compliance & Audit

Regulatory adherence, conflicts management, and internal review, supported by external audit where appropriate.

– 04

Board Oversight

Firm-level governance with clear accountability for strategy, culture, and regulatory standing.

Reporting

Clear, structured, on cadence.

Mandated clients receive reporting at pre-agreed cadence: performance against mandate objectives, portfolio commentary, risk metrics, and material changes.
