The Horatius Fund

Horatius is a geopolitical hedge fund designed to harness human intelligence, political context and cultural insights to find and deliver superior returns in an uncertain world. Today, when geopolitical uncertainty is playing a key role in determining the direction and outcome of world events, the new fundamentals are increasingly driven by the political landscape and the emotional reaction of market participants. The historic relationships between the fundamentals used in the calculus of markets have broken down. Whilst sound credit analysis remains vital, it is only one dimension of fixed-income risk; Horatius understands risk in multiple dimensions. Today's conventional narrative too often excludes a nuanced analysis of the vital geopolitical dimension. Horatius provides a blend of geopolitical intelligence expertise with proven fixed-income management experience. This provides investors with the benefit of owning a fund that has an understanding of sensitive insights into the political and cultural drivers of specific markets in reaching its investment decisions. In an age where automation and colossal scale are the norms, Horatius believes that human experience, an understanding of the broader context of specific investments, and nimble deductive analysis, will provide the difference required to deliver superior returns to our investors.
