Long/Short

Long/Short

First Global Investment Corporation enhances its top-down, fundamental investment approach through innovative Long/Short Equity strategies that capitalize on market disparities. By harnessing our extensive global equity research platform, we are adept at uncovering mispriced segments within the marketplace. This approach not only allows us to take long positions in undervalued securities but also empowers us to short overvalued stocks, creating a balanced risk-reward profile. Ultimately, our Long/Short strategies aim to cultivate returns regardless of market conditions, providing our clients with a dynamic and versatile investment solution.

At First Global Investment Corporation, our investment decisions are the result of collaboration rather than the perspective of a single individual. Our Investment Policy Committee, comprised of five seasoned professionals with over 150 years of collective industry experience, works together to shape the firm’s strategic investment direction. This team-driven approach ensures a well-rounded perspective, combining diverse insights and expertise to enable informed decision-making that aligns with our clients’ goals. By fostering an environment where teamwork and shared knowledge thrive, we aim to provide our clients with robust investment strategies that stand the test of time.
