MLC has added two new investments to its Long-Term Absolute Return (LTAR) strategy in the form of Insurance Related Investments and a Pure Alpha Strategy.
The Insurance Related Investments will be managed by Nephila Capital and the Pure Alpha Strategy will be managed by Bridgewater Associates.
Both investments require a long-term investment perspective.
They are uncorrelated to other sources of return currently accessed and thus reduce the overall risk of the portfolio.
MLC launched its LTAR strategy in 2005 as a multi-manager, multi-asset class portfolio specifically designed to deliver net real returns to investors over 20-year periods.
