Citywire Selection, what is it?
Citywire Selection is the guide to our best investments ideas.
Containing long-only funds, absolute return vehicles, investment trusts and ETFs.
The list contains up to 150 investments that have passed our independent quant screening.
How we decide what goes in it?
Funds
Core funds: Quant screening that identifies consistent outperforming fund managers over market cycles, based on sector level risk adjusted returns.
Selected funds: Fund managers demonstrating consistent outperformance, but have insufficient experience to qualify for the core screening.
Absolute Return Vehicles
Multi-asset funds and UCITS III strategies that have demonstrated low volatility and controlled drawdowns.
Investment Trusts
Selected trusts demonstrating consistent outperformance and offer access to diverse asset classes.
ETFs
Selected ETFs that are easy to access, cheap and have a strong counterparty. Selections offer access to diverse asset classes or established markets which have a narrow range of outperforming managers.
About Citywire Selection
Citywire Selection has been broken down into 13 key asset classes, covering over 50 investment themes.
