At Ruffer, we look after investments for private clients, trusts, charities and pension funds. We have a distinctive investment approach, focused on producing consistent returns and not losing money. For each of our clients, our aim is to strike the right balance between risk and reward while avoiding the explosive ups and downs of the market cycle. To do this, we conduct our own independent research, actively manage investments and operate freely, without the straitjacket of relative returns or market benchmarks. We try to provide a service that combines good investment returns with first class administration and clear reporting.
