The firm identifies investment opportunities by analyzing global interest rate disparities and market conditions, aiming to achieve consistent returns that are not affected by broader market trends. This approach is distinct from competitors as it emphasizes a fixed income relative value strategy, which seeks to exploit supply and demand imbalances in sovereign bonds. Garda serves institutional clients like pension funds and foundations, helping them diversify their portfolios and secure stable returns. The company's goal is to deliver superior investment performance while effectively managing risk.
