Insights
Unlocking the Power of a Strategic Allocation to Commodities
As a standalone asset class, commodities have recently been uninspiring to investors, even after the inflationary period that followed the pandemic. However, when we look at the combination of current market themes and historical contributions of commodities to a balanced portfolio, we see ample reasons to be allocated to this unloved asset class.
An End to T-Bill and Chill?
In short, investors have enjoyed ‘T-bill and chill’ for two years – but is this still true now that central banks have begun to cut rates? We believe investors should really be asking: is now the time to move away from cash?
Investment Outlook: Navigating the Narratives
Recent data present an economic landscape reminiscent of last year’s: growth remains persistently above trend, job creation far exceeds what is necessary to maintain a stable unemployment rate and inflation is inching back towards target. The volatility in economic outlooks underscores a cycle that is charting its own course, largely unconstrained by historical precedent.

Climate Change – Inaction Is Not an Option
This paper makes the case that the greatest climate impact – and potentially also some of the greatest returns – can be sought by investing in those companies with high emissions or whose products have the greatest impact on other companies’ emissions. Central to this approach is pro-active and profound company engagement; we believe in encouraging the companies to pull the levers necessary to target improved aggregate climate outcomes. The goal is to allocate more capital to drive the business opportunities the transition creates, while simultaneously driving down emissions over time.
