ARIAD Asset Management is an innovative Hamburg-based financial services company that applies absolute return strategies with largely quantitative methods. Independence from banks and other financial institutions ensures a clear view for convincing market decisions. Over the past 30 years, the Managing Directors have held responsible positions as securities traders or investors, witnessed major market shifts and know that risks are often underestimated. This encouraged them to tackle the issue of "risk" more systematically and avoid emotional investment decisions.

A company such as ARIAD Asset Management does not need to limit itself to strategies which are praised so frequently by most of the product vendors. ARIAD pursues other ways to find new topics and strategies which clearly stand out from so-called mainstream thinking.

Not every expertise needs to be developed and elaborated in-house. The management has consistently built up a network of specialists and experts from various fields in the many years since the company was founded. This has produced many interesting and successful cooperative arrangements which optimally unite the knowledge and the strengths of multiple sources.

While massive political interventions coupled with central bank actions in global markets staved off the worst consequences of the 2008 crisis, this had a questionable influence on subsequent developments. Risk-free interest rates have given way to interest-free risks. In a world without basic interest rates, the investor is forced to create a new equilibrium between risks and returns. ARIAD is convinced that derivative overlays can serve as a convincing response for achieving a necessary level of investment control. At the same time, such a step can function as a rescue anchor in the overall portfolio context. As forward-looking asset managers, we should always remember the following: Whatever you do, do it wisely – and consider the outcome!
