Investcorp-Tages has launched Selwood Asset Management’s latest fund on its UCITS platform.

The Selwood Equity Absolute Return UCITS fund is managed by Karim Moussalem, CIO (Equities), and Kevin Guillot, Portfolio Manager, who have over 35 years’ combined experience. They worked together at Verrazzano Capital from 2012-2016, where Moussalem was a Founding Partner and Co-Portfolio Manager. 

Moussalem previously spent a decade at Goldman Sachs, where he was latterly co-head of Europe Delta One trading. More recently, he held senior posts at Deutsche Bank and Cantor Fitzgerald.
 
The new Selwood fund will principally invest in mid- and large-cap European companies with market capitalisations in excess of $1 billion. The fund aims for low net exposure and employs a disciplined approach to target a concentrated, high-conviction portfolio.
  
Investcorp-Tages was a seed investor in Selwood when the London-based firm launched in 2015.
