Risk Management
About Armatus.
Since our inception, Armatus Capital Management has focused on building steady, strategic, risk-adjusted returns.
Our Approach to Research and Investing
We intend to maximize returns while embracing an acceptable level of risk. We seek to accomplish this by dividing our capital among multiple arbitrage strategies across global markets, seeking to exploit inefficiencies in particular markets and asset classes.
We search broadly to identify securities that are mispriced or have other characteristics that make them potentially attractive candidates for investment and then try to understand why this market opportunity exists. Once we are satisfied through our research and modeling that this is a genuine opportunity, we invest.
Our Leadership.
