Our Solution

The Systematic Macro Programme

The Systematic Macro Programme (‘SMP’) is QCM’s flagship product. It was launched in 1995 and was formerly referred to as the Global Diversified Programme (‘GDP’). Since inception, the product has evolved over its history with a number of milestone enhancements. Its most recent pivotal change took place in November 2018 following a three year research deep dive into the QCM investment strategies, shifting the product into a new paradigm of systematic macro trading.

An enhanced offering

To better categorise the GDP’s upgraded investment strategy, we re-named the product Systematic Macro Programme (‘SMP’) in June 2021. The SMP is a long/short absolute return product and offers investors a fully diversified actively-managed portfolio of 110 exchange-traded futures across the two broad Financial and Commodity asset classes. These 110 futures are listed in major exchanges worldwide and are diversified across a multitude of sectors including global stocks, bonds, interest rates, and currencies together with commodities including energies, metals, grains, softs and livestock.

The SMP is currently offered through managed accounts (SMA’s). It is an attractive product offering for investors who wish to have full transparency and control of their investment, with choice of own broker. A SMA investment additionally offers the ability to margin the account and trade at a higher notional level depending on the degree of leverage that both QCM and the investor is comfortable with. Transaction costs can be negotiated by the investor directly with the broker. Independent reports, positions and valuations can be viewed through direct online access by the investor any time.
