WHAT WE DO

Gresham offers a range of diversified strategies that seek to offer our clients the benefits of systematic exposure to a wide range of commodities and commodity groups through instruments including commodity futures, forward options, and over-the-counter commodity contracts. Commodities are tangible assets such as oil, gold, and wheat. Like non-tangible assets (such as stocks and bonds), commodities offer the potential for investment return with associated risk.

Our flagship strategies, which include our proprietary Tangible Asset Program® (TAP®), Adaptive Tangible Asset Program (ATAP), and Risk Dispersing Portfolio (RDP) strategies, use 30 years of data to provide investors with diversified exposure to commodities. These strategies use systematic trading to provide a hedge against inflation.

Our enhanced commodities strategies are broadly diversified, long-only commodities futures strategies. These strategies are benchmarked against the Bloomberg Commodity Index and seek to provide investors with the same exposure while providing better risk-adjusted returns.

Gresham’s absolute return strategies use state-of-the-art quantitative trading models. GreshamQuant systematically applies modern trend-following technology to globally diversified alternative markets.
