MANAGEMENT REPORT FOR THE BUSINESS YEAR 2018
2018 has been a very interesting year for Sumus Capital. Not only it has been a year of important developments for the company, but also a "test" year for us due to the negative markets' performance.
On the development side, as we had already announced in last year's management report, we opened a branch in Lugano in April 2018. We believe Lugano is a very important market for us: not only does Sumus have many Italian-speaking employees with long-standing contacts in Ticino, but this financial place is undergoing important changes, creating opportunities for growing companies like ours. To reinforce our commitment to the Ticino region, we decided in April 2019 to sponsor a local car racer who competes in the Italian Gran Turismo Race (please see later in this booklet the description of our sponsoring activities). We also hired (June 2019) a sales manager to take responsibility of funds' development in the region.
On the funds' side, we made some important decisions: we are changing the Luxembourg custodian and most services' providers and we will launch a new sub-fund dedicated to Hybrid bonds this Summer. This will strengthen our product range in the bond market, which is definitively one of our main competencies.
These positive developments were not possible without investing in the team: we grew from 6 full-time employees at the end of 2017 to 9 full-time employees by the end of 2018, reinforcing the front office (Lugano + institutional sales) and administrative support.
Concerning the markets, 2018 has been a negative year and obviously this impacted our results: many of our products and mandates have a relatively low management fee but also feature an incentive fee. The trend goes this direction and we believe that corresponds to our clients' preferences. Therefore, 2018, in addition to being a year where investments were high, was a test-year for us. We are very happy to close 2018 with a profit just below CHF 300'000.
For this result, we would like to thank, first of all, our clients and investors. Despite a negative year, they were able to understand that our strategy was the right one and allowed us to outperform most of our competitors. We also would like to thank our employees. Their commitment and unity are the key to our success. The word "Sumus" ("we are" in Latin) stands for our belief that in a company like ours, success can only be achieved by a strong team.
