Credit expertise
Our fixed income department has solid expertise in both corporate credit and sovereign debt.
Ranging from thematic strategies to flexible allocation, our investment processes combine a thorough bottom-up know-how with our digital investment platform, in order to optimise the allocation and expected risk-adjusted returns of the portfolios.
We actively manage credit beta and duration through dynamic hedging strategies.
Convertibles bonds expertise
Convertible bonds are a hybrid asset class. They enable us to profit in part from the upside potential of equity markets, while controlling the level of volatility thanks to the bond component, which acts as a parachute.
Convertible bonds management fits perfectly with the SILEX philosophy, successfully combining the best of the two worlds between equity and bond management, conviction based management and quantitative management, between performance and risk management, between simplicity and know how.
Equity expertise
Our equity department creates portfolios which aim to outperform the market, while displaying a resilient behaviour during volatile market phases. Our approach is based on 3 pillars:
Cross-asset
Our cross-asset strategies allocate capital dynamically across fixed income (sovereign debt and corporate credit), equities and FX as well as investing in mutual funds.
SILEX's approach combines the market convictions of our investment committee with inhouse technology, bringing rigour and robustness in order to optimise our portfolios and their exposures to different risk factors.
This expertise in allocation is complemented by SILEX’s solid knowledge of the underlying asset classes.
