Sébastien Saba, Country Head for Business Development Belux at Apex Capital Rising, introduces Jupiter Asset Management, a UK-based firm founded in 1985 that originally specialized in stock picking in the equity markets. In 2020, Jupiter acquired Merian Global Investors, a major player in alternative products, thereby expanding its offering and presence in the UK, Belgian, and Luxembourg markets.
Today, the Jupiter Merian Global Equity Absolute Return, a long/short equity fund, is at the heart of Jupiter’s offering. This fund aims to outperform U.S. cash +5% while maintaining controlled volatility (approximately 6% annualized). Rated Risk 2, it is uncorrelated with traditional markets, making it particularly attractive to investors seeking stability and performance.
Despite a challenging 2022 for the markets, the fund posted a return of +8%, followed by +9% in 2023 and +10% in 2024. In 2025, it is already up 4%. This consistent performance demonstrates the strategy’s robustness and its effectiveness in reducing portfolio volatility while ensuring performance security.
In summary, Jupiter, with its flagship fund, offers investors a flexible and high-performing solution that is uncorrelated with fluctuations in traditional markets.
