'Alternative investments for the modern portfolio'
Port Funds is an innovative provider of alternative investment solutions whose investment vehicles bring together top managers and specialist advisers to implement non-correlated, alternative investment strategies. The philosophy underlying these strategies can be summed up as 'Risk Management through Asset Allocation,' as it is increasingly well recognized that optimal risk diversification includes exposure to alternative asset classes.
The services provided by Port Funds include the creation of bespoke funds, either white labeled or direct. Clients seeking to create their own funds have access to a large selection of funds, private equity deals, and other specialised investment opportunities on which to draw.
Port Fund's current range of funds focuses on non-traditional, non-correlated investment themes which offer variety to the investing public. We strive to maintain the 'Best of Best' standard in all our endeavors, seeking top investment advisors for each product. Both the Movie & TV Opportunities Fund and the Wealth and Fine Wine Fund, recently featured in the Financial Times, Sunday Times and the International Investment Advisor, are advised by preeminent experts in their respective areas.
The Movie & TV Opportunities Fund is not a traditional media fund – and the returns are not dependent on Box Office performance. Even before production begins a sufficient mix of distribution rights are “pre-sold” to major distributors to cover at least 100% of the film’s production budget. In practice, the pre-sales target is for 125% of the budget to “lock-in” a 25% return. Pre-sales in the film industry have never been used this way before. Traditionally, pre-sales have been used as one element of film finance but this fund is using them to preserve capital and to achieve its financial return target. Subsequent revenues stemming from ownership of the films represents additional equity upside.

Using wine investment as part of overall portfolio construction on a three- to five-year investment horizon makes a great deal of sense for most investors. During major market tunring points wine shows some correlation with shares but this has historically been short-lived and on a medium-term investment horizon wine has a low correlation to equities. Fine wine has been used for decades for portfolio diversification by institutional investors and family offices and is one of the oldest investment markets in existence. Investment grade wine can deliver excellent returns due to the suply and demand fundamentals of a "wasting asset". As a complement to share holdings Fine Wine exposure can help reduce the overall volatility of an investment portfolio. As a Fund of Funds, the Wealth and Fine Wine Fund uses expert knowledge of wine and of market analysis to evaluate the performance of underlying funds and to take a small direct holding in select vintages. For those without the necessary expertise to evaluate individual wine funds this expertise can be invaluable.
