Category "1" does not mean that the investment is risk-free.
The first investment fund that invests in the wine and spirits value chain.
The fondo de inversión March Vini Catena invests in listed companies in the wine industry from across the world.
It does not invest strictly in wine itself, rather businesses involved in the world of wine, related to the wine value chain. Banca March selects high-quality companies, with the right foundations and special features that help them to stand out from their competitors; in short, it looks for options that represent a good opportunity.
This fund does not follow any benchmark.
High-quality wine is on the up, with demand progressively growing while supply is being limited. This situation represents a very interesting opportunity for investors.
The "Premium" characteristics of most companies operating in this sector make it a very defensive investment compared to global equity.
The world outlook in terms of demand for high-quality wine means that the long-term perspectives of the performance of companies operating in this sector are positive, both in developed and emerging countries.
The March Vini Catena fund has a low correlation to stock markets and less volatility than global equity in general.
