PREMMIT aims to provide services to investors and asset managers in relation to alternative investments. Our people have decades of experience in such investments, and in financial markets in general, and have observed - in detail and in real time - how investments of all types evolve, including in the more extreme situations of recent decades.

 

As perhaps the name suggests, our services around alternative investments aim to cover any investment - asset or fund - which is not a classic "delta one" position in listed equities or bonds. We believe it is useful that alternative investments sit in their own category, not least because their prices and returns are less driven by certain factors.

 

Alternative investments have become a growing part of many investors' portfolios, variously, to increase diversification, enhance returns and to avoid, or reduce, certain types volatility.  It is a fact of life that traditional listed equities and bonds can be subject to rapid, as well as extreme, price movements. This is, arguably, due to the breadth of the investor base in those asset classes, which includes leveraged and short positions (sometimes vast in scale), fast money, and substantial retail involvement, either directly or by aggregators. Amongst other potential advantages, many investments which are not classic liquid equites or bonds, by their very nature of being less mainstream, are somewhat insulated from such market driven, or trend following, volatility.

Our overriding aim is simple: to facilitate investment into well-defined investment strategies with a view to improving returns and diversification.
