MARTLET FUND MCGILL
Three Strategies. One Fund.
Martlet Fund McGill is structured around three distinct yet complementary investment strategies — Event-Driven, Quantitative, and Long/Short Equities — empowering members to explore diverse perspectives while contributing to a unified, high-conviction portfolio guided by institutional discipline.
Learning With Purpose
OUR APPROACH
Independent Strategies. Unified Execution.
We operate as a single student-run fund, combining diverse investment philosophies under one centralized portfolio. Our structure mirrors the internal segmentation of real hedge funds — offering our members exposure to both independent strategy development and cross-team collaboration.
OUR TEAMS
Strategies Overview.
Event-Driven
Capitalizing on Market Catalysts
Our Event-Driven team identifies trades around corporate actions, earnings announcements, M&A activity, and macroeconomic inflection points. These are high-conviction, time-sensitive ideas driven by fundamental and situational analysis. Members focus on understanding catalysts, market sentiment, and potential mispricings.
Long/Short Equities
Conviction-Based Fundamental Investing
The Long/Short Equities team conducts deep-dive fundamental research to build high-conviction positions. Members develop investment theses rooted in financial statement analysis, competitive dynamics, and long-term value versus market perception. Exposure is managed to hedge downside risk and target asymmetric returns.
Quantitative
Technical Insight. Data-Driven Edge
Our Quantitative team develops quantitative strategies using Python, statistical modeling, and backtesting frameworks. Members explore momentum, mean-reversion, and multi-factor strategies — evaluating performance across multiple time frames while adhering to strict risk management protocols.
COLLABORATION & PORTFOLIO CONSTRUCTION
Multiple Perspectives. One Cohesive Portfolio.
While each team operates independently, the fund maintains a unified capital structure and a collaborative investment committee process. Strategy heads meet regularly to assess risk exposures, portfolio construction, and macro overlay.
