London-headquartered wealth
management and investment advisory firm, Plurimi, has said
it will open its funds to external investors, such as pension funds, family offices and private banks, for the first time. With funds previously only available to the
firm’s own wealth management clients, Plurimi’s asset management offering
started in 2011 when it launched the Plurimi Aviation Leasing Fund, which buys
and leases midlife aircraft to airlines in developing countries. Since 2011, Plurimi has launched two other
funds, the Plurimi Sustainable Income Fund, in March 2013, which invests in
high yield debt that meets socially responsible criteria, and the Plurimi
Global Opportunities Fund in September 2013, which takes a top-down macro
approach to long-short equity investing. The funds offer a “range of strategies
designed to ensure consistent returns and the preservation of capital, factors
that are crucial in these uncertain markets,” said Stephen Kelso, head of asset
management.
