The Midgard Fixed Income Fund

 

The Fund primarily invests and trades both long and short in Government bonds, Mortgage bonds, Index-Linked Bonds, Swaps and Derivatives issued from countries in the European Union, Switzerland, and Norway with a bias towards the Nordic Fixed income markets.

The Fund does not invest in Corporate Bonds. The Fund has maximum flexibility to invest in a wide range of instruments including listed bonds, options, futures, swaps, and other derivative instruments.

The Fund’s investment policy is based on a top-down approach and follows a disciplined investment process divided into three phases; Micro Analysis, Construction and Evaluation/Monitoring. The strategies are divided into three sub-strategies; Yield Curve, Volatility and Relative Value.

Midgard

The relative value sub-strategies primarily focuses on the analysis of the investment opportunities in the Danish and Swedish mortgage markets. The Investment Manager believes in a high degree of risk control and in maintaining a diversified and largely uncorrelated portfolio.

To monitor the risk profile of the Fund the Investment Manager receives reports and analysis from both external and internal sources on a daily basis.
