Relative value asset management for global assets. PVM's Investment Matrix combines balance-sheet analysis with peer comparison to identify entry and exit points. Asset Management Using our unique relative value based Investment Matrix we build portfolios with superior analytical metrics, compared to mainstream equity indices. We currently have two different Portfolio offerings; firstly our classical Long only Global Equity model (suitable for all investors), and a Multi-Asset Class model, designed to generate additional alpha (suitable for Professional and Institutional clients only). We deliver discretionary portfolio management through individually segregated accounts held in your name. This flexible mandate empowers you to complement our core PVM Investment Matrix Portfolio by actively incorporating listed securities of your own selection. PVM Global Equity Long Strategy Type Long Global Equity Suitable for All Investors Focus Absolute return/low risk Minimum Investment 150k CHF 2025 Performance 2026 Performance (31. August) +21% +7.1% Performance since Jan 2016 +109% More PVM Global Multi-Asset Strategy Type Multi-Asset Class Suitable for Qualified Investors Focus Absolute return Minimum Investment 250k CHF 2025 Performance 2026 Performance (31. August) + 26% +10.6% Performance since July 2015 +194% More Our Investment Philosophy Investment Matrix Fundamental Design In 2015 we developed our dynamic Investment Matrix consisting of many fundamental variables, designed to identify value opportunities within Global Equities. Our Investment Matrix is constructed to identify and establish sustainable value. There are many reasons why that value may also not be sustainable, such as changing consumer sentiment or spending more on share buybacks than current cashflow permits, the PVM Investment Matrix reacts to these changes. Algorithmic Processes Systematic Throughout We utilise proprietary algorithmic screening, with a high degree of automation, to analyse the global equity universe, monitor our Clients' Portfolios, and identify new opportunities. Furthermore, we use algorithmic execution tools when buying and selling our clients' portfolios, where appropriate. Qualitative Rationale Deeper Understanding Driven by deep analysis of balance sheets and employing further levels of qualitative analysis, results in a thorough understanding of the companies we invest in. We consider factors, such as; the mix of Goodwill and Intangibles to Net Equity, tracking deviations from recognized Accounting Standards and taking a broader view of the global economic landscape. Robust Returns, less Risk Better Together The combination of quantitative systematic analysis, overlaid with qualitative reviews and active management within clearly defined parameters, results in an investment model which is both robust and not easy to replicate. Stable returns are achieved by taking less investment risk, at higher valuations. Investment Process "We believe that an uncompromising investment process is a key component in delivering consistent returns."

A Multi-Asset Class Value Strategy for Professional InvestorsVM's Global Equity Long strategy targets undervalued global equities through disciplined balance-sheet analysis and relative value screening. PVM Multi-Asset Class Value PVM Multi-Asset Class Value This strategy provides a unique approach to capitalizing on relative value across a wider market, by adding to Equity Long only with principally Precious Metals and Foreign Exchange but can also include a wider range of Fixed Income and Commodities. Based on our Investment Matrix, the strategy begins with a rigorous assessment of macroeconomic trends, industry analysis, and fundamental company research. It emphasizes the identification of key catalysts and market inefficiencies to identify undervalued securities. Investments in Currencies and Precious Metals/Commodities are based on their comparative relative value to Purchasing Power Parity and Production Costs. The strategy emphasizes dynamic portfolio construction, regularly reassessing and adjusting positions based on changing market conditions and new investment opportunities. This adaptive approach ensures the portfolio remains aligned with evolving market dynamics. By employing a disciplined approach to investing, this strategy aims to generate superior risk-adjusted returns in both bull and bear market environments but does have a higher risk profile and hence higher drawdowns, than the Equity Long only strategy.
