Amida Capital Management employs relative value and convertible arbitrage investment strategies. Investments are based on in-depth fundamental research which identifies long, short and relative value opportunities. Each investment has a catalyst expected to drive the revaluation of mispriced securities or derivatives within a defined time horizon. They invest both long and short, in a broad range of equity and credit products, including common stock, preferred stock, convertible bonds and preferred stock, corporate bonds and other fixed income instruments (such as high yield instruments), unrated debt securities, bank debt, trade claims and fixed-income securities and may also utilize ETFs and other index products to gain or diminish exposure to various asset classes. Amida advises on the usage of derivative instruments, including exchange-traded and over-the-counter credit default swaps, options, futures, currency swaps, interest rate swaps for efficient portfolio management and a variety of other derivative instruments convertible into or related to such securities for investment or efficient portfolio management (including hedging) purposes. The firm advises on securities trading that takes place on U.S. and non-U.S. exchanges and over-the-counter markets, and may include securities of entities in developing countries, U.S. and non-U.S. government debt instruments.

DLD’s primary method of analysis is fundamental analysis and engages in event driven type strategies in order to pursue high returns on a risk-adjusted basis. The firm attempts to profit by understanding dynamic/fluid catalyst-driven situations, particularly in the equity and equity derivative markets, and structuring trades appropriately around this understanding. By using a diverse set of hedging instruments, DLD seeks to generate returns while limiting volatility and mitigating risk.
