At JK we adopt an opportunistic, contrarian, value driven approach to investment.

The aim is to create a portfolio of investments with exceptional risk/reward characteristics which generate significant capital gains over time.

The JK Global Opportunities Fund will consider for investment a broad range of instruments, including but not limited to equities, futures,  corporate and government debt, ETF’s, closed-end funds, UCITS, convertible bonds, and currencies on a global basis.

There are only a few things investors can do to counteract risk: diversify adequately, hedge when appropriate and invest with a margin of safety. Seth Klarman
