Coutts has rolled out a new alternatives fund in partnership with JP Morgan Asset Management (JPMAM).
The Coutts Diversifying Alternatives Multi-Manager fund aims to generate returns with low sensitivity to traditional markets.
Available to investors through Coutts and Natwest, the fund leverages JPMAM’s track-record in third-party alternatives investing.
Fahad Kamal, Coutts CIO, said: “We are always looking for ways to enhance the service we offer to clients, and to build on our track-record of delivering first class products. This exciting partnership allows us to achieve that ambition.
“The scale and global reach of JPMAM’s platforms mean that clients will have access to a global asset management team and to market-leading tools – further demonstrating Coutts’ commitment to supporting our clients to reach their investment goals.”
