Investment philosophy
History When was the company established? 2006 List of mergers that have taken place since being established: None
Colourfield is South Africa’s largest and only dedicated “liability driven” investment management business. As an LDI manager, Colourfield’s investment philosophy is built around the understanding and de-risking of liabilities. We utilise a scientific approach to portfolio construction that will track a liability-based benchmark irrespective of market circumstances.
B-BBEE credentials
Unlike other investment managers that attempt to outperform a benchmark where the core components are known in advance, Colourfield has the objective of tracking the movement of a non-investable liability stream.
