As a leading manager of alternative investments, GSAM continues to grow its Liquid Alternatives business and this new Fund expands that platform to include seven funds.

"We seek to identify secular changes in industries, markets and consumer behavior that will positively or negatively impact companies. We are typically looking for investment opportunities with asymmetric risk/return profiles and identifiable catalysts," said Raanan Agus and Kenneth Eberts, co-heads of the Goldman Sachs Investment Strategies (GSIS) portfolio management team. "We strive to build a hedged portfolio with the flexibility and nimbleness to generate attractive performance in any market environment."
The GSIS team is comprised of 55 investment professionals across four regions globally and led by Messrs. Agus and Eberts, who each have more than 20 years of investing experience.
"For the first time, we are bringing the expertise that Raanan, Ken and their entire team have delivered to institutional and qualified high net worth investors to a retail investing client base," said James McNamara, President of GSAM’s mutual funds business. "We are excited to further meet the growing demand for differentiating liquid alternative investment solutions."
The Fund is offered in Class A and C shares with $1,000 minimum initial investments. The Fund also offers Institutional, Class R and Class IR Shares. GSAM also recently launched its Liquid Alternatives Center (www.gsamfunds.com/lac) to provide advisors and investors with educational materials and tools that were specifically designed to help them effectively manage portfolios with allocations to liquid alternatives.
