Inspired by the New Zealand falcon/kārearea. Capable of flying at speeds over 100 km/h and catching prey larger than itself, the New Zealand falcon is one of our most spectacular birds.
Hunter Investment Management
Hunter is a specialist New Zealand-based investment management company that was founded in 2016 by industry veteran Tony Hildyard. Our focus is on providing quality New Zealand-centric investment solutions that address the wide range of investment issues that directly impact returns to end investors.
Hunter investment philosophy
Hunter’s investment philosophy is based on the following beliefs:
-
- both active and passive investment strategies can play valuable roles within portfolio construction;
- strategic asset allocation is an important component in determining long-term investment returns and the trade-off between risk and return;
- diversification across a range of geographic regions, asset classes and securities is an important risk mitigation factor;
- regular rebalancing is beneficial to ensure appropriate risk tolerances are maintained so long as this is undertaken in a cost effective way;
- fees reduce returns to investors and are an important consideration; and
- taxation can also be a drag on returns and structuring of investment matters.
