AHL Dimension Programme comprises a broad mix of high-conviction systematic strategies, spanning technical, fundamental, and momentum styles.
These utilise a wide universe of highly liquid instruments – currently around 400 futures and forwards spanning the major asset classes of equity, FX, fixed income and commodities – as well as options, interest-rate swaps, credit derivatives and over 2000 single-name equities.
Around half of the Programme’s momentum allocation is to the AHL Evolution Programme which trades momentum on instruments not typically traded by CTAs, such as interest-rate swaps, credit and power derivatives, and cash equities.
Technical strategies seek to capture risk premia associated with a wide variety of sources.
They potentially include seasonality patterns, predictable price moves around major economic events, the mean-reverting nature of fixed income yield curves, and machine learning, for example.
Fundamental strategies use non price-based information to determine trading signals. These might be, for example, carry strategies in FX, fixed income, commodity instruments and long-short equity models based on fundamental data. Man AHL has been a pioneer in momentum strategies for over a quarter of a century and historically momentum itself has been shown to persist in markets for well over a century. Momentum strategies have holding periods of between two and three months.

One should carefully consider the risks associated with investing, whether the strategy suits your investment requirements and whether you have sufficient resources to bear any losses which may result from an investment:
Investment Objective Risk - There is no guarantee that the Strategy will achieve its investment objective.
Market Risk - The Strategy is subject to normal market fluctuations and the risks associated with investing in international securities markets and therefore the value of your investment and the income from it may rise as well as fall and you may not get back the amount originally invested.
Counterparty Risk - The Strategy will be exposed to credit risk on counterparties with which it trades in relation to on-exchange traded instruments such as futures and options and where applicable, ‘over-the- counter’("OTC","non-exchange") transactions. OTC instruments may also be less liquid and are not afforded the same protections that may apply to participants trading instruments on an organised exchange.
Currency Risk - The value of investments designated in another currency may rise and fall due to exchange rate fluctuations. Adverse movements in currency exchange rates may result in a decrease in return and a loss of capital. It may not be possible or practicable to successfully hedge against the currency risk exposure in all circumstances.
Liquidity Risk - The Strategy may make investments or hold trading positions in markets that are volatile and which may become illiquid. Timely and cost efficient sale of trading positions can be impaired by decreased trading volume and/or increased price volatility..
Financial Derivatives - The Strategy will invest financial derivative instruments ("FDI") (instruments whose prices are dependent on one or more underlying asset) to achieve its investment objective. The use of FDI involves additional risks such as high sensitivity to price movements of the asset on which it is based. The extensive use of FDI may significantly multiply the gains or losses.
Leverage - The Strategy's use of FDI may result in increased leverage which may lead to significant losses.
Emerging Markets - The Strategy may invest a significant proportion of its assets in securities with exposure to emerging markets which involve additional risks relating to matters such as the illiquidity of securities and the potentially volatile nature of markets not typically associated with investing in other more established economies or markets.
Model and Data Risk - The Investment Manager relies on quantitative trading models and data supplied by third parties. If models or data prove to be incorrect or incomplete, the Strategy may be exposed to potential losses. Models can be affected by unforeseen market disruptions and/or government or regulatory intervention, leading to potential losses.
