Momentum Global Investment Management was established in the UK in 1998 as the international investment and asset management arm of MMI Holdings Ltd. As with any growing business, we have evolved with the times and the ever-changing investment landscape, developing into an investment-driven business that focuses on tailored products and solutions for a diverse client base. All of our solutions are driven by three specific capabilities: asset allocation, manager selection and risk management. In terms of asset allocation, our views are driven by a clearly defined, disciplined framework focused on valuation opportunities that enable us to implement our strategy on an active basis. We believe that no single fund manager can create a monopoly of quality across the spectrum of products that they offer and our ability to invest with different specialists across the world is essential. Risk management is embedded as an integral part of our investment process and is monitored at each stage of the process. We believe that the robust, disciplined and repeatable nature of our process enables us to consistently meet and exceed the expectations of our clients.
