Bowmoor Capital’s investment strategy, Global Alpha, is a long/short, systematic, quantitative strategy which is designed to benefit from price trends in global markets.

We use sophisticated mathematical processes to identify and exploit market trends, investing in a diversified portfolio of globally exchange traded futures. Those futures markets are highly liquid and capture a wide range of trends across the largest financial and commodity sectors of the global economy. We take both long and short positions, designed to profit from rising and falling markets. We aim to perform independently of traditional stock and bond investments, thereby providing valuable diversification benefits and enhancing the risk/reward profile of a traditional investment portfolio.

Global Alpha has been rigorously designed and developed since 2003. With comprehensive risk management controls in place, we incorporate diversified investments across a broad range of markets and carefully balance portfolio allocation on a daily basis. We focus on scientific and systematic processes and we always follow the data.

Our investment team is led by Gareth Abbot and Brendan Mulvany, who together have over 50 years of combined experience developing and running alpha-generating investment strategies.

Over 30% Annual Returns Since
Inception*

Ray Dalio and the Renaissance Technologies’ Medallion Fund are often described as one of the most successful hedge funds of all time, and have produced over 30% annual returns since inception in 1988.

Trend following played a significant part of the early success of the Renaissance trading strategies and it is a similar trend following strategy which is at the heart of Bowmoor Capital.
