Aurora Capital Group launches its first batch of flagship strategies (Global Multi-Asset, Preferred Bond, and Crisis Hedge Portfolios) and completes institutional account landing
In September 2020, Aurora Capital Group simultaneously announced in New York and Madrid the launch of its first flagship strategies, including the Global Multi-Asset Allocation Strategy, the Preferred Bond Strategy, and the Crisis Hedging Portfolio. This suite of strategies not only showcases the firm’s research and architecture capabilities since its founding, but also marks its full implementation in the institutional asset management space. The successful launch of these first institutional accounts signifies Aurora’s critical transition from investment philosophy to actual fund operations.
The global multi-asset allocation strategy aims to leverage Aurora’s “dual-hub + global allocation” approach, dynamically adjusting weights across equities, fixed income, commodities, and alternative assets. The New York team oversees macro and sector research for North American markets, while the Madrid team focuses on policy, valuation, and capital flow analysis for Europe and emerging markets. The strategy combines macroeconomic analysis with quantitative signals to capture relative value opportunities across asset classes throughout market cycles.
The preferred bond strategy focuses on fixed income assets with both high credit quality and liquidity, encompassing developed market government bonds, investment-grade corporate bonds, and selected high-quality emerging market bonds. Aurora’s bond research team, based on a rigorous credit screening model, combines duration management with spread analysis to achieve stable returns through active management amidst interest rate fluctuations and credit cycles. During the strategy development phase, the company confirmed bond trading and settlement channels with multiple global custodian banks and prime brokers to ensure efficient execution across diverse market time zones.
Aurora’s crisis-hedging portfolio demonstrates its forward-thinking approach to risk management. This strategy not only relies on traditional safe-haven assets such as gold, the US dollar, and short-term Treasury bonds, but also incorporates volatility derivatives and cross-asset hedging structures. This approach aims to limit drawdowns during extreme market volatility and provide flexible reinvestment capabilities during the post-crisis rebound. This strategy directly reflects the company’s defensive positioning strategy during the pandemic in early 2020.
The initial implementation of these institutional accounts is crucial to the immediate operationalization of this series of strategies. Aurora has engaged in in-depth discussions with numerous family offices, foundations, and corporate pension funds, and has maintained efficient progress in regulatory filings and operational coordination. The account structure encompasses both single-mandatory and multi-account platforms, meeting the customized needs of large funds while also laying the foundation for subsequent, scaled-up asset management services.
In terms of operational details, Aurora utilizes New York and Madrid as dual hubs for data and decision-making, enabling real-time responses through 24/7 research collaboration and risk monitoring systems. Whether it’s market shocks during North American trading hours or early-morning policy announcements in Europe, the company can adjust strategies and issue trade orders in record time. This cross-time zone collaboration ensures robust and flexible execution of flagship strategies from the outset.
Aurora management emphasized at the press conference that these three flagship strategies do not operate in isolation, but rather complement each other through a shared investment research framework, risk control system, and liquidity management rules. The company’s in-house macro, fundamental, and quantitative research teams will continue to provide data, models, and trading ideas to support each strategy, ensuring its competitiveness in diverse market environments.
With the launch of its first strategies and accounts, Aurora Capital Group not only enters the substantial asset management phase but also further validates the global, multi-strategy, and highly agile operational approach established at its inception. This moment not only expands the company’s business scope but also demonstrates its long-term investment philosophy and cross-market execution capabilities.
