Strategy Overview
RV Corporate Bonds has been designed to perform in any market conditions. Our relative value strategy, with nearly three years of certified track record is proving to be a successful approach in order to identify value and deliver market neutral returns: Strategy in principle Our strategy is founded on the fact that, in credit markets, short term price volatility can temporarily lead to relative mispricing of bonds. Our model enables us to incorporate long term dislocations into a traditional yield curve approach. These “structural factors” are persistent characteristics of a bond that can throw-off a more naïve RV strategy. The distinction between short-term and long-lasting price influences is critical for a successful RV strategy. Our sector specialists identify the reasoning behind price mis-alignments; and search for those likely to correct in the short/medium term. Using a long/short approach, we aim to capture the differential between bond spreads (within the same bond curve or sector) generated by temporary imbalances; and profit once the factors that cause this mis- pricing dissipate. Our Universe : Our portfolio managers focus on sector specific activity in the credit bond market; we restrict ourselves to high liquidity issues.

1) Quantitative model sends signal highlighting that the spread differential has moved from ~8bp positive to ~25bp positive 2) PM analyse reasons behind mis-alignment with a bottom-up
- approach. ( Bonds
structure and covenants, supply and demand, liquidity etc.) 3) Should the bottom-up analysis determine that temporary technical or fundamental factors are behind the mis-pricing, than the PM would start monitoring the spread and identify the next best entry point. 4) Bonds spread differential moves back to ~50bp
- positive. PM buys
the cheap and sells short the expensive. 5) Spread differential moves to ~25 negative. PM captures ~75bp movement. Trade Highlights

Risk Management
Any relative value strategy needs to measure the risk associated with both long and short positions; and the evaluation of the netting effect is crucial. Our proprietary risk management system combines traditional measures of interest rate and credit exposure with
- ur own internally calculated beta weightings. These sector specific weightings and correlation measures allow
- ur portfolio managers to correctly size and distribute our holdings to control our exposure to the market. This is
useful both from a risk control perspective and for the minimizing of PnL volatility. As a firm that invests partners money alongside external investments we hold very high standards for our risk
- controls. In addition to risk management presence amongst traders throughout market hours, risk exposures are
formally assessed on a daily, weekly and monthly basis.

Investment management at Redhedge is largely divided down sector lines. This specialization allows greater focus not just on the companies we invest in, but also on the nature of the markets in which we trade. Our Portfolio Managers interact with the market both directly, and through a range of counterparties, this proximity to the market helps us to establish an information advantage; reduces the cost of trading; and gives valuable insights into market liquidity.
