Our Approach

Alternative management enhances traditional investment strategies by targeting absolute returns irrespective of market cycles. Leveraging sophisticated financial instruments and advanced techniques, we effectively exploit market inefficiencies, particularly during periods of heightened volatility.

Our qualitative approach is anchored in three core principles: careful selection of high-quality issuers, short maturities, and relative-value strategies. This disciplined framework is designed to balance security, performance, and flexibility.

Investment Styles

Our extensive offering encompasses thematic or diversified alternative funds, UCITS funds, and capital-guaranteed Notes.

Building on our recognized arbitrage expertise, our alternative management covers six core areas: ABS/MBS, Convertible Bonds, CLO Bonds, Corporate Bonds, Fixed Income, and M&A.

Our products can be combined flexibly to deliver customized, diversified solutions tailored specifically to your investment objectives.

“We continuously adapt our investment strategies to reflect evolving market paradigms and capture emerging opportunities.”

Joffrey Czurda,
CEO Cigogne Management.
