Wincrest Capital is a global equity asset management firm founded in 2015. Its flagship fund is the Contraria Fund, a global long/short equity fund. Wincrest adopts a private market approach to the public equity markets and defines risk as the permanent impairment of capital, not volatility. The firm has a strong focus on alignment of interests, not only with investors and the investment team, but also with portfolio companies. Over 80% of the long book is invested in companies where the founding family members are meaningful shareholders and 70% of the holdings are in no major index at all.
