Altavista Investment Management, which was founded in 2007, is an investment manager based in London.

Altavista, the London-based investment manager, has launched a new India-domiciled fund that invests in businesses experiencing short-term market challenges. 

The Altavista Capital India Long Only Fund invests in dislocated, high-quality businesses with attractive valuations that are suffering bouts of turbulence, the firm said in a statement. 

The fund, which is bottom-up and fundamentals driven, will run a concentrated and unconstrained portfolio with around 15 positions. 

“Our experience shows that over the last five years, by employing unconstrained, bottom-up individual stock selection, it is possible to outperform the market significantly,” said Arun Agarwal, managing director of  Altavista Investment Management. “India offers an attractive opportunity for long-term investors willing to live with some volatility.”
