Asset management focusing on alternative investments

About Garda Capital Partners

Garda Capital Partners focuses on managing assets through global alternative investment strategies, particularly in fixed income relative value. The firm identifies opportunities in global interest rate disparities and sovereign debt instruments, aiming to deliver consistent returns that are not affected by broader market trends. This is achieved through proprietary analysis that looks for imbalances in supply and demand for sovereign bonds and differences in interest rate policies among countries. Unlike many asset management firms, Garda Capital Partners specifically targets institutional clients like pension funds and endowments, offering them unique investment solutions to diversify their portfolios. The goal of the firm is to provide stable returns and superior investment performance while managing risk effectively.
