Founded in 2000, Novare is one of South Africa’s leading financial services groups. We initially began our journey as an independent advisory business offering tailored financial advice. A year later, in 2001, we entered the multi-manager industry by providing multi-manager and alternative investment solutions to our retail and institutional clients.

Our bespoke approach has enabled us to consistently identify and blend leading fund managers into a single portfolio, allowing us to craft and maintain some of the best funds on the market.

Our in-depth and rigorous research process is committed to understanding how each fund manager contributes to an overall fund structure.

ABOUT

RECOGNISED AS AN INDUSTRY PIONEER, OUR COMMITMENT TO RELIABILITY, CONSISTENCY AND SUSTAINABILITY ARE INTEGRAL TO

OUR BUSINESS APPROACH, AND OUR EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE IS EVIDENCED BY THE NUMBER OF LONG-TERM CLIENTS WE

This approach, combined with strategic asset allocation and ongoing fund manager monitoring is what leads to superior performance.

Our proven 18-year track record and strong balance sheet enables us to offer our clients a wide variety of unique, well-researched investment options, including investment advice, asset management, investment consulting, alternative investments and private equity.

This includes being the first investment firm to launch regulated hedge funds to the South African retail market.

We believe that a multi-manager approach to investing is one of the most successful ways of optimising risk-adjusted returns. Markets are characteristically inefficient, but we have the ability to take advantage of this by investing across various manager styles and asset classes to deliver diversified and real investment outcomes.

THE BENEFITS OF MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

Multi-manager funds combine multiple professionally-managed investment funds into a single offering. This provides a number of benefits that are typically difficult to achieve when investing in single-manager funds:

• Asset class diversification: Multi-manager funds invest across different asset classes, sectorsand geographies. This type of diversification minimises the dependence on the performanceof a single fund manager and enables you to benefit from reduced risk without sacrificingreturns.

• Fund manager diversification: By broadening your investment horizon beyond a single fundmanager, your exposure to the performance and management style of that fund manager isreduced. No single fund manager can consistently outperform across all asset classes all thetime as each fund manager has a different area of focus and approach to their investmentphilosophy and process. Multi-managed funds harness the specialised expertise of severalfund managers into one collaborated fund.

• Active management: Investing in a multi-manager fund eliminates the need for you tochoose where and how to invest your money as the research, selection and ongoingmonitoring of each fund manager is done on your behalf by the expert team at Novare.Multi-manager funds offer diversification in one single investment option and removes thepressure of having to find, as well as monitor, individual fund managers.

• Specialised skill: A multi-manager approach provides you with access to the pooledexpertise of multiple investment experts. Each expert is dedicated to understanding howevery fund manager contributes to the overall fund structure. Each fund manager also looksafter their unique area of expertise, allowing each fund within the fund to operate optimally.Every fund is monitored to ensure optimal performance and is rebalanced when necessary.
