A really tough decade! This could well be a very tough investment climate Think ‘wealth preservation’ BEFORE ‘wealth creation’ Think carefully about products, assets and managers you use Demand better products from providers Demand better service from providers and researchers

Some scary stuff out there… Insiders selling 34 shares for every 1 they buy. 80% of return from equities since 1982 through valuation expansion Nations involved in a zero sum game of competititve devaluations Never has the US market been higher ten years later with p/e’s at current levels US trade deficit is $500m a day and is funded by purchases of US treasury bills by overseas countries! Breakdown of trade talks hailed by some as a ‘victory’! Think Osama Bin Laden is really finished ?

Manage risk not return Model portfolios are based on expected returns However this assumes unlimited capital invested indefinitely Clients HATE losses and their impact is not linear Expected return thus fallacy with impact on portfolio construction Therefore you should manage risk because you cannot manage return Risk management involves balancing the investment opportunities with the probability of capital depreciation Who is better placed to manage risk – asset allocator or manager? Tactical asset allocation a waste of time ?

The return of the specialist Paradigm shift The manager has a mandate to balance investment opportunity with capital at risk. Absolute return approach with low degree of specialisation Relative return approach with high degree of specialisation Absolute return approach with high degree of specialisation

Traditional portfolio in trouble ? Cash – basically returning zero after inflation and tax Shares – are they expensive or cheap Fixed interest – interest rates at 40 year lows Property – liquidity and fear driven boom

Portfolio additions Structured products – get exposure to index but also capital protection. Need watch participation levels Infrastructure funds Private equity – talented managers heading for private companies from public ones Absolute return – can provide return in area of expertise regardless of direction of general market Commodities – see below

Liontamer product ideas Reverse convertible  Return is fixed, capital at risk  Higher returning annuity  Pricing up well only on single stocks, not indices Capital protected Asian fund  Engine room of world growth  Cheap prices relative to other developed markets  Volatility an issue  Difficult place to invest directly

Liontamer product ideas Capital Protected Commodities Fund  Full Goldman Sachs Commodity Index  3 year term  100% upside  Capital protected unless it falls by 30% then capital at risk Why Commodities?  Counter-cyclical to bonds and stocks  Equity like returns (GSCI has done 11%pa since 1970)  Inflation hedge

Commodities poised for bull market ?  Zero allocation to commodities by institutions  Virtually no one uses resources funds despite stellar performance in 80’s  Real prices at 20 year lows  If you continue to print more dollars/yen/euro then prices of hard commodities will rise  Dearth of capital investment in recent years

Commodities poised for bull market ?
