Vantage: Behavioural finance and thematic investing with Toscafund’s Mark Tinker

Mark Tinker, CIO of Toscafund Hong Kong, explains his innovative dual-strategy fund, combining behavioural finance and thematic investing. The thematic component invests in major technological and industrial trends like robotics via exchange-traded funds, removing individual stock risk. The behavioural finance aspect blends factors like value, momentum and volatility to balance the fund based on the behaviours of short-, medium- and long-term investors. Tinker describes his systematic process of analysing risk-return and dialling down left-tail exposure. By combining high-conviction thematic investing with a stable factor approach, the fund offers equity risk with mitigated downside. Tinker shares his perspective on market cycles and how his behavioural approach helps long-term investors avoid noise trading risks.
