The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation and outperform the Canadian equity market through a strategy that offers long and short exposure to the Canadian and US equities. The strategy involves long position to equities that are expected to outperform the market, while selling short those that are expected to underperform. HDGE uses the cash generated from its short positions for an additional long position. As a result, long portfolio may have up to 110% exposure and short portfolio up to 50% exposure, resulting in a net long equity exposure of 60%. Securities of the long and short portfolio are selected by applying a proprietary multifactor model to the Canadian and US equity market. Equities generated by this model that are in the top 10% are selected for the long portfolio, and the bottom 10% for the short portfolio, based on factors including value, quality, price momentum, operational momentum and trend.
