The Cambridge Strategy opens Sydney office
London-based boutique currency risk manager The Cambridge Strategy has opened an office in Sydney to conduct research and portfolio management.
The new office will be led by research director Chris Udy, who has been based in the London office of Cambridge Strategy, which has been managing money for institutional investors since 2004.
The active currency alpha and overlay manager will take advantage of its global spread to allow 24-hour currency risk trading and research from the Sydney office, according to marketing director Derek Doupe.
He said Cambridge’s specialist skills and experience, as well as its strong risk management credentials, were well suited to the sophisticated Australian market.
“Our initial market focus is the institutional super schemes. However, over time our desire will be to make our offerings more widely available.”
Doupe said he is one of three Cambridge Strategy principals in the firm who are either Australian or have worked here.
