  • Episode 5: Bo Knudsen of C WorldWide Asset Management: A High Conviction Approach - in Portfolios and in Life
    Feb 25 2025
    Bo Knudsen is the CEO and Global Equity Portfolio Manager at C WorldWide Asset Management. Bo has worked in portfolio management since 1989, marking the start of a distinguished career in global equities. Prior to joining C WorldWide Asset Management in 1994 he worked for five years as a global portfolio manager with Danske Capital in Copenhagen and ultimately held the position as Head of International Equity Investments. In 1998 Bo moved and subsequently joined Nordea Investment management as Executive Director and Head of Equities. He re-joined C WorldWide Asset Management team in 2001 where he has remained ever since. The conversation, hosted by Tom Raber of Alvine Capital, and Aoifinn Devitt, starts with Bo's upbringing in a rural village in Denmark, and his education path to finance. We discuss then his approach to stock picking, hold period and portfolio construction, and how the high conviction approach works for him. We detour a little then in to the political backdrop to investing today and what that means for scenario analysis and forecasting. Our discussion concludes with his life outside investing, and Bo discusses his high conviction and focused approach there. Alvine Capital is a specialist European placement agent founded in 2005. With offices in London and Stockholm, Alvine seeks to uncover best in class investment managers around the globe and bring them to the European Institutional market.

  • Episode 4: Bjorn Thelander: From the Frontier to the Mainstream and Back Again
    Nov 21 2024
    In this Alvine Talks podcast Tom Raber and Aoifinn Devitt sit down with Bjorn Thelander, who is an experienced Family Office manager with broad international investment and industrial experience. His background is varied and involved many stints in emerging markets, punctuated by market crises which often necessitated a pivot - or two. We discuss how this shaped Bjorn in terms of his world view, his appetite for risk and his tolerance for volatility. We then trace his journey through investment banking, investment management, time at food-packaging giant Tetra Laval, a stint as an entrepreneur and his most recent role, as CIO at the James Dyson family office, Weybourne. He recently left this role and we discuss what the next chapter holds. Bjorn has a wide range of interests and experience, and this is reflected in his taste for "off the run" investments. We discuss the opportunity in Argentina and the reforms ushered in by Javier Milei, and debate the promise of Bitcoin and other digital assets, where Bjorn has had an early interest. On the personal side we examine Bjorn's competitive nature, his love of sports and recent books and other interests.

  • Episode 3: Stephen Isaacs - Macro Strategist and Advisor to Alvine Capital - Confessions of an Unapologetic Contrarian
    Apr 26 2024
    Stephen Isaacs is a strategic advisor to Alvine Capital, and an angel investor who has held a number of roles as non-executive director and chair and is a frequent commentator on macro and economic matters. We wanted to sit down with him to get insights into his current macro reviews and peel back the layers a little to ask about his approach to the economy and investing and gather some lessons learned from past setbacks. We start by discussing the approach Stephen takes to investing and to distilling macro noise into investable theses. We look at his own biases which get in the way of him being truly long-term, and look at some fixes to protect us from our worst tendencies as investors, which usually involve an overly acute focus on the short term. Our conversation then goes free-range, we discuss topics as diverse as governance, the upcoming US election, the behaviour of commodities, absolute return funds and traditional portfolio protection hedges.
