Equity Analyst – Frontier & Emerging Markets – Long-term Investment Fund
An expansive Hedge Fund based on value long-term investments with around $2 Billion in Assets under Management is looking to take on a Frontier Market Equities Research Analyst.
The analyst will be expected to have around four years of buy-side experience in the Long-Only strategy and a keen entrepreneurial drive, along with emerging market knowledge.
The main regions that the value Investment Fund will be covering from an Equity research perspective will be Africa, Central Asia and CEE. Knowledge and equities experience in every one of these regions is not essential but a keen drive to develop expertise in all of them is necessary.
Analysts will be expected to deliver alpha-generating returns on their investments and stock-picking from the emerging markets with a very long term value investment strategy and a low turnover.
Key responsibilities of the role:
- Focused research - As the team is still very compact in structure, research will be specific to long value investments and stocks.
- Contributing to Frontier Market portfolios through deep dive analysis of African, Central Asian and Central-Eastern European equities
- Presentations - the stock selections will be presented within the team on a biweekly basis in an informal manner. Company culture is a very high priority to the managers, and an entrepreneurial nature is important to drive the fund forward with positive returns
- Due Diligence - the deep dive value investment strategy of the fund will require that candidates show thorough stock inspection.
The main duties, therefore, will involve a merge of country and company due diligence to generate structured and clear longterm investment ideas, and to help continue the Fund?s brilliant track record thus far.
You should apply to this role if you:
- Have more than 3 years Buyside experience - it has been specified that an analyst with either long-only or long-short will be considered but 3 years experience on the buyside in the emerging markets is a minimum.
- Are entrepreneurially driven - whilst the fund is in its early stages, the investments will be split between just five analysts and so a motivated drive for long-term stocks is key.
- Have a generalist sector coverage - equally a multitude of sector coverages at different funds will also be considered.
- Have a strong academic record - a minimum of 2.1 from a top redbrick university is required.
- Are open to relocation - the role is based in Malta and so this must be considered.
This Maltese Hedge Fund is looking to build an analyst into their team by the middle of next month and are willing to work through the Christmas Period in order to achieve this. For the perfect candidate they have clarified that they will hire almost immediately, and so if you are interested in the role you must seize the opportunity to APPLY NOW, because interviews are already well underway.
