Emit Capital

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our investment strategy, portfolios, fees, and onboarding process.

What is Emit Capital's core investment strategy?
We invest in mid-to-large-cap global listed equities positioned at the intersection of the energy transition and the AI/data-centre infrastructure super-cycle. Portfolios are concentrated (15–20 stocks), high-conviction, and actively managed with dynamic risk overlays.
How do you generate alpha?
By targeting companies with structural growth drivers — AI, electrification, nuclear, grid infrastructure, and energy efficiency — and applying rigorous valuation discipline. We overlay options strategies to manage downside risk while retaining upside participation.
What differentiates Emit Capital from peers?
Our differentiation rests on three pillars: a focused mandate at the AI-power demand and energy transition nexus, global coverage across four regional SMA portfolios, and an institutional-grade options and hedging framework that reduces drawdowns and manages convexity.
What regions do you cover?
We operate four SMA portfolios with distinct regional mandates:
  • North America — US and Canadian-listed equities
  • Europe / UK — European and British-listed equities
  • Asia-Pac / Japan — Asia-Pacific and Japanese equities
  • AI Infrastructure — US-centric AI and technology infrastructure
How concentrated are the portfolios?
Each portfolio holds 15–20 stocks, maintaining sectoral diversification within strong thematic alignment. This concentration enables deep conviction in each position while limiting dilution from index-like holdings.
How do you manage risk?
Risk management is multi-layered:
  • Beta analysis and portfolio-level delta management
  • Gamma management to control convexity exposure
  • Covered calls to monetise elevated volatility
  • Protective puts on individual positions and index-level hedges
  • Dynamic hedging adjusted to prevailing market conditions
What is your performance track record?
Our flagship Global Opportunities Portfolio has generated annualised returns of 31% p.a. in AUD since inception. Monthly and year-to-date performance figures are published in investor updates. See our individual SMA investment pages for full performance data on each portfolio.
What are the fees for investing?
  • Management fee: Charged monthly in arrears. Please contact us to discuss applicable rates.
  • Performance fee: Charged quarterly in arrears. Please contact us to discuss applicable rates.
Are there transaction or platform costs?
Yes. Standard Interactive Brokers (IBKR) brokerage fees apply to all transactions executed within the portfolio.
How can clients invest?
Clients can access our strategies through three channels:
  • Interactive Brokers (IBKR) — globally accessible SMA accounts with full transparency and direct beneficial ownership
  • White-label / sub-advised — tailored solutions for advisory groups and institutional intermediaries
  • Direct SMA — individually managed accounts offering full position-level transparency
Is there a minimum investment size?
The standard minimum is AUD 250,000 (or foreign currency equivalent) via Interactive Brokers. Lower investment thresholds may be available — please contact us to discuss your circumstances.
How liquid are the investments?
All portfolios are composed of mid-to-large-mega-cap equities listed on major global exchanges (US, EU, UK, Asia). On average our portfolios are large cap. As exchange-listed securities, they provide daily liquidity.
What are the key risks of an investment?
Material risks include equity market risk, foreign exchange volatility, interest rate movements, and geopolitical or trade-related shocks. We seek to mitigate these through portfolio diversification, dynamic hedging overlays, and active risk management.
What licences does Emit Capital hold?
Emit Capital Asset Management holds an Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL 551084), issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). Distribution partnerships facilitate access for investors in other jurisdictions.
How frequently do you report performance?
We publish monthly investor reports covering performance attribution, risk metrics, and strategy commentary. Investors can also access portfolio valuations on a real-time basis via Interactive Brokers' reporting functionality.
Can advisers customise reporting for their clients?
Yes. We support white-labelled materials, adviser-branded reporting, and tailored performance attribution for end-clients. Please contact us to discuss your specific requirements.
