Benefit from broader opportunities with global shares.
Global shares provide diversification in an investment portfolio, as well as exposure to the world's best companies and industries underrepresented in United States.
Investing in global shares provides geographical and industry diversification, which may improve a portfolio’s risk and return potential.
In accessing companies that operate in a different environment from America, you can potentially benefit from broader opportunities.
Country-specific drivers of share performance, such as economic growth, politics and regulatory issues, have the potential to create wide variations in share performance over differing timeframes. This creates abundant opportunities for active investors who are continually seeking quality companies and are not limited to investing in a single country or region.

WHY INVEST IN GLOBAL SHARES?

The Possibilities

Investment opportunities

The substantial size of the global share market provides investors with the potential to capture thousands of additional investment opportunities.

Wider range of industries

An investment in global shares can provide access to future growth leaders in industries such as healthcare and information technology – industries that are comparatively small in America

Diversification benefits

Spreading your money across different regions and industries can improve your portfolio’s risk and return potential as companies operating in differing environments are exposed to different drivers of performance.

OUR ALTERNATIVES CAPABILITIES


Diversification through new solutions


The rise of alternatives is amongst the key investment themes we have witnessed over recent years as investors explore dynamic, new solutions to diversify their portfolios. Our investment teams are experts in their field, leveraging diverse strategies, innovation through collaboration, and global thought leadership to develop sophisticated alternative investment solutions.


  • Infrastructure:

    We invest patiently and strategically, with a focus on creating and building long-term value. Well-managed infrastructure assets can provide long-term institutional investors with benefits, including portfolio diversification, earnings stability, participation in economic growth, protection from inflation and portfolio risk management.



Why Sagebull fixed income and credit



  • Predictable outcomes:

    We focus our portfolio on delivering predictable outcomes - capital stability, regular income, and liquidity. These are characteristics that investors generally seek from ‘defensive’ asset classes.

  • Risk aware:

    We will only add risk to our portfolios when we expect it will be sufficiently rewarded. This ensures that the defensive qualities of our portfolios are not compromised.

  • Stable and experienced team:

    SageBull’s experienced credit and fixed income team have delivered through different market cycles, with the senior portfolio managers working together for over a decade. Our current capability set has been built on a strong foundation, with SageBull managing debt-like portfolios since 2012.

  • Active trading of quality assets:

    SageBull’s approach is to actively manage good quality credit and fixed income assets. Quality assets tend to be more liquid, have lower transaction costs, are issued in greater volume, and are more likely to experience spread contraction as they approach maturity. An active risk aware approach can help to add value for investors across the less transparent fixed income markets.


Our infrastructure success and competitive advantage are built on six key principles.


  • Targeting high-quality assets:

    We target core infrastructure assets that typically have monopoly-like characteristics, including strong market positions, conservative leverage, predictable regulatory environments and high barriers to entry.

  • Managing for long-term net returns:

    Our infrastructure strategies target a total return outcome that comprizes capital growth and cash yield using conservative levels of leverage. We aim to assist assets to deliver capacity enhancing capital investments that meet the long-term needs of customers and the community.

  • A large, dedicated investment team

    Our team is able to implement appropriate governance structures and proactively work with experienced and capable management teams.

  • Focused on value creation

    Our team can facilitate large, complex transactions, as well as smaller, accretive opportunities. We are also able to position individual operating companies and platform investments to allow for bilateral transactions.

  • Unique proprietary portfolio construction

    Our infrastructure portfolio methodology (InFRAME) analyzes the underlying revenue streams and value drivers of infrastructure assets

  • An integrated responsible investment approach

    We take an integrated approach to responsible investment considerations. We believe this enhances the productive capacity and net performance of our portfolio companies over the long term.

BENEFIT FROM INVESTMENTS THAT CAN DELIVER CAPITAL STABILITY.

Income and liquidity

At Sagebull, we offer a range of cash, credit and fixed income solutions and are specialists in investing in quality debt.
We take a highly active approach to buying and selling credit and fixed income securities and invest extensively across industries, maturities and the capital structure.
We aim to create well-diversified and highly liquid portfolios that perform well across market cycles. We focus on generating income and seek to avoid losses so that portfolio returns are stable.
While some fixed income securities can move in the same direction as share markets, our risk aware approach seeks to provide the defensive attributes investors expect from fixed income – such as high levels of capital security, consistent income, liquidity and a low correlation to shares.
