VANCOUVER, Jan. 29, 2015 /CNW/ - AlphaDelta Management Corp., an affiliate partner of Qwest Investment Fund Management Ltd. (QIFM), today launched a new family of investment funds managed by active investors with transparent, simple and focused portfolios.
"We believe in being sustainable and investment-driven, rather than influenced by slick marketing or short-term thinking," explained Victor Therrien, AlphaDelta CEO. "Our management team brings over 100 years of collective experience, and after seeing the growth of the abstract investment products market, we resolved to focus on being timeless, durable and uncomplicated."
With today's announcement, AlphaDelta TM introduces three new products to the Canadian mutual fund marketplace:
AlphaDelta Canadian Prosperity Class Fund, managed by Laurus Investment Counsel Inc.

Our Purpose
The mission of AlphaDelta TM is Discovering Great Investors TM. The firm believes that Canada's investment industry offers an unrecognized opportunity in certain investment managers who, despite their skills, experience and performance records, remain largely unknown. As such, AlphaDelta's business structure has been designed to discover great investors, then support and promote them by:
- Managing search, selection, continuous due diligence and supervision
- Designing and developing investment products
- Marketing materials and product distribution
- Ensuring effective investor and regulatory reporting
AlphaDelta's approach to the investment industry and product development has been refined and proven over 20 years, consistently reducing costs while improving performance against benchmarks.
Competitive Advantage
AlphaDelta's competitive advantage comes from its ability to discover great investment managers before they become popular. This approach is modeled on world-class firms that have successfully identified investment managers and benefited from their successes.
Investment managers and clients will benefit from AlphaDelta's:
- Long-standing distribution agreements with IIROC and MFDA firms
- Best-in-class mutual fund management infrastructure
- Highly-experienced industry veterans executing a proven marketing and sales strategy
- Enviable contacts throughout the North American investment management industry
AlphaDelta's distribution and administration skills free up resources and allow fund managers to do what they do best – find attractive investments.

Investment Philosophy
AlphaDelta's approach to investing – Discovering Great Investors TM – has been refined and proven over 20 years, consistently reducing costs while improving performance against benchmarks. AlphaDelta strives to:
- Position great investment managers in targeted market segments
- Increase Assets Under Management
- Create wealth for AlphaDelta clients and shareholders
AlphaDelta's model benefits investment managers who want to grow their Assets Under Management and become independent, not just operationally, but from a distribution standpoint. Our distribution and administration practices allow fund managers to do what they do best – find attractive investments.
Our investment managers also benefit from our core belief that superior risk-adjusted returns are achieved by being active. We believe in the statistical evidence that says "to beat an index, you cannot resemble it."
The Canadian Market
AlphaDelta believes that the current Canadian market offers an unrecognized opportunity to discover great investment managers.
Canada currently has over 1,000 registered investment managers (ICPMs) and more than two trillion dollars in Assets Under Management (AUM). We believe that among the approximately 350 ICPM registrants who are actively working to grow their businesses, about 150 have the potential to join AlphaDelta's roster.
Our Products
Discovering great investors is the first step to success. Turning the manager's skills into successful products means that we need to share this talent with the marketplace. That's why AlphaDelta creates mutual funds, along with other investment vehicles, and markets the skills of great investors.
Our Platform
AlphaDelta, in conjunction with its affiliate company Qwest Investment Fund Management Ltd., is registered in all securities jurisdictions (except Quebec) as an Investment Fund Manager and Portfolio Manager, as well as an Exempt Market Dealer in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario. Our company has been conducting business since 2005.
AlphaDelta offers marketing and distribution services, as well as seasoned manager search, risk management and back-office teams to support managers in investor and regulatory reporting.
The AlphaDelta platform – building on its dedicated senior sales team, common risk management system and governance controls – makes it easier to raise assets. The platform's collective strength benefits the startup manager by giving investors confidence in the investment vehicle's stability.
