For international equity and bond markets, we allocate funds to different managers, the manager being a domain expert in the region/sector and/or specific themes. Over the years, Markaz has excelled in identifying quality managers, which is the result of a thorough due-diligence process, based on qualitative and quantitative criteria, and can be taken note of from the returns of our products.
In the third quarter of 2005, we launched Atlas ETFs Portfolios. The ETF portfolio seeks to achieve out-performance of broad market and sector indices by allocating its assets into various Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) worldwide. . In 2007, the International Department has launched the IPO Pre-IPO portfolio which aims at tapping IPO/Pre-IPO opportunities in the Emerging /MENA markets.
We take pride in offering our investment advisory services to various institutional and individual clients enabling them to invest in 'managed accounts', direct participation into several funds and products, besides providing them with our asset allocation ideas. Our aim is, therefore, to offer the clients with tailor-made portfolios to meet their financial objectives, supported by efficient employment of in-depth due diligence and constant monitoring and simple to-read monthly reports and quarterly reviews.
