Authorised Financial Services Provider · FSP 55878
Independent Thinking. Disciplined Execution.
PAMRS (Pty) Ltd is an independent South African alternative investment management firm and an authorised Category II Financial Services Provider (FSP 55878), specialising in discretionary investment management within global derivatives markets.
Established with a focus on quantitative investment methodologies, PAMRS combines advanced mathematical modelling, automated execution technology and active human oversight to develop and manage alternative investment portfolios. Our approach is built around systematic decision-making, disciplined risk management and the ability to identify opportunities across changing market conditions.
Our Clients and Partners
PAMRS serves high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family offices, trusts and corporate entities. We also provide specialised investment management solutions for wealth managers, asset managers and investment funds seeking complementary exposure to derivative based strategies within their existing investment structures.
Our Place in Your Investment Portfolio
PAMRS’s alternative investment solutions are designed to complement, rather than replace, traditional investment portfolios. By providing exposure to actively managed derivative strategies, we offer investors an additional investment approach alongside conventional holdings such as equities, fixed income and other long-term investments.
Our strategies seek to identify opportunities across both rising and falling markets, with the objective of generating absolute returns without relying exclusively on traditional market appreciation. This approach allows PAMRS to serve as a specialised alternative allocation within a broader investment portfolio, subject to each investor’s objectives, risk tolerance and overall asset allocation.
Our Philosophy
We believe effective investment management requires more than performance alone. It demands robust operational infrastructure, regulatory accountability, transparency and a disciplined approach to managing risk.
By combining quantitative expertise with professional investment oversight, PAMRS aims to provide differentiated investment solutions while building long-term relationships founded on trust, transparency and accountability.
Our Objective
To establish PAMRS as a recognised specialist investment management partner, delivering alternative investment solutions to private and institutional clients through disciplined execution, responsible risk management and continuous innovation.

The PAMRS Alpha Derivative Portfolio is an actively managed alternative investment portfolio specialising in global derivatives markets, primarily through Contracts for Difference (CFDs). Its approved investment universe encompasses major, minor, and selected exotic foreign exchange pairs, spot gold (XAU/USD), and selected US and UK large-cap equity indices.
The portfolio employs proprietary quantitative investment strategies, combining advanced mathematical modelling, systematic price-action analysis, and automated execution technology to identify and capitalise on market opportunities. Its bidirectional approach allows the establishment of both long and short positions, seeking to generate returns across varying market conditions without relying exclusively on sustained market appreciation.
Investment activity is governed by a structured risk management framework incorporating disciplined position sizing, predefined exposure limits, continuous portfolio monitoring, and active human oversight. This approach aims to maintain controlled risk exposure while allowing the portfolio to respond dynamically to changing market conditions.
The portfolio’s primary objective is absolute return generation through disciplined, risk-managed participation in global derivatives markets, with an emphasis on long-term capital growth and consistent application of its investment methodologies. Returns are not guaranteed, and the use of leveraged derivatives involves the risk of capital loss.
The mandate is actively managed and executed by PAMRS (Pty) Ltd. Capital allocation and trade execution are governed by pre-defined discretionary risk management protocols to ensure targeted market exposure.
The compensation framework ensures absolute alignment with client performance. There are zero fixed management fees levied against the deployed capital. From the client’s perspective, PAMRS (Pty) Ltd is compensated exclusively via a 40.00% performance fee applied to realized profits. Under the High-Water Mark system, no performance fees are drawn unless the portfolio generates net-new realized capital gains that exceed the highest previously recorded equity peak.
