Pictet TR - Corto Europe I EUR

The compartment follows an equity long/short investment strategy. The objective of the compartment is to achieve long-term capital growth in absolute terms with a strong focus on capital preservation. Traditional long positions are coupled with (synthetic) long and short positions, which will be achieved through the use of financial derivative instruments (such as total return swaps). The compartment will take exposure principally to companies, which are domiciled, headquartered or exercise the predominant part of their economic activity in Europe. For this purpose, the compartment will mainly invest in equities, equity related securities (such as but not limited to ordinary or preferred shares) and financial derivative instruments. The geographical exposure to Europe is to be measured to the gross exposure to equity of the compartment.
