Global Investment Strategy Group

Bringing a global perspective to your portfolio

About the Global Investment Strategy Group

The Investec Global Investment Strategy Group (GISG) has the task of setting the risk position for Investec Wealth & Investment as a whole. The GISG brings together our leading strategic thinkers to ensure the management of your portfolio is based on a comprehensive global macroeconomic outlook. The Group analyses the risk environment over the medium term, defines the outlook for investors, and identifies potential icebergs that may lie ahead.

This is your direct window into the thinking that goes into the Investec investment outlook and strategy – with the latest global investment insights, trend analysis, and recommendations from some of the world’s top experts.

Drawing on a wide range of perspectives

The investor insights mapped out by the GISG on a quarterly basis, directly inform the strategy from which asset allocation committees in different regions make their investment decisions.

The GISG draws on the expertise of Investec Wealth & Investment professionals from the UK, South Africa, Mauritius, Hong Kong, Ireland, and Switzerland.

The Group is a voting forum, which operates on the principle of one member, one vote. When votes are cast, the results define what the risk position and budget for the quarter will be.

Regular assessment of strategy

To ensure our investment outlook and risk positioning is always informed by the latest market developments, the GISG meet on a quarterly basis to do the following:

Map out and analyse the economic outlook for the next 18 months
Coordinate the risk appetite of the group – defining how much risk we are comfortable to assume
Discuss how this 'risk budget' is to be spent – including the most and least appealing areas to assume risk and how we insure against it
Identify and validate key investment themesIdentify potential threats (the 'icebergs' ahead) in the global investor’s path
Discuss new developments that could have an impact on returns

Global Investment View
