Hedge Funds
Long / Short Hedge Funds
The firm’s flagship South African focused long/short fund dates back to February 2001. Visio’s hedge funds are traditionally net long bias and carry limited derivative positions. The Funds target positive returns on capital invested, irrespective of market conditions. Investment decisions are based on in-depth research of company and sector fundamentals. Portfolio churn is low and the average holding period for investments in the portfolios exceeds 12 months.
SA Domiciled Funds
The hedge funds are managed on the same basis, and strategies are applied uniformly. The strategies invest in both domestic and offshore listed equities. The Visio FR Retail RI Hedge Fund and qualified-investor hedge funds have net long exposure limits of 100% of invested capital. Visio II, Visio FR Retail RI Hedge Fund and Occasio are Rand-denominated onshore funds. We offer both qualified and retail investor fund structures as well as segregated mandates. Term sheets and fact sheets for the long/short funds are available by emailing Lindiwe Montshiwagae at lindiwe@visiofund.co.za or Vulani Mampane at vulani@visiofund.co.za.
