We believe that the combination of these schools increases our ability to identify good investment opportunities.

Single book

MAR manages only one fund, with a single book shared by the portfolio managers. Our investment thesis can be both macro or through stock picking, with the best opportunities having the heaviest weight on the portfolio.

Analysis

Factorial risk analysis across different asset classes generates better risk management. Regardless of the asset class, the best opportunities will have the heaviest weight in the portfolio.
We believe in absolute intellectual honesty among team members, to constantly evaluate the changes of the asymmetry in each thesis.

Partnership

Founded by partners with decades of experience in portfolio decision-making and who think of society as a long-term project.
Team formed patiently, with extremely careful selection. Remuneration aligned with investors and the long-term construction of the company.
