Atrium breaks from the herd
The failings of traditional asset management models are being exposed by volatile market conditions and the prevailing low growth environment, Atrium Investment Management believes.
Atrium chairman, Chris Cuffe, said the existing market conditions had heightened investors' focus on active management, asset diversification and risk management.
Cuffe said Atrium was an example of "a new breed of true active investors".
"This is a business that was purpose-designed to deliver consistent outcomes to its investors by remaining focused on getting the investment substance right," he said.
"The team first and foremost consists of passionate investors who eschew a herd mentality, focusing on allocating carefully to select sectors and underlying assets with strong, measurable value.
"Secondly, the diversified nature of the investment process, combined with an emphasis on dynamically managing a spectrum of investment risk, has helped Atrium to target outcomes for its investors with a greater degree of confidence."
