On 29 April 2026, BANDS Capital Management Limited hosted a closed-door performance review session on the operating performance of BANDS Jaspil Equity Enhancement OFC, reporting to investors on the fund's live trading path since the start of the year, the logic behind model responses, and the way its risk control mechanism functioned. As of mid-to-late April 2026, the fund had delivered a cumulative pre-fee return of 13.07%, outperforming the Nasdaq 100 ETF QQQ by nearly 4.8 percentage points.
During the first quarter of 2026, global markets faced significant pressure from geopolitics, shifting macro expectations, and heightened volatility in the technology sector. As high-beta assets, technology stocks saw amplified swings at the index level. Against this backdrop, BANDS Jaspil Equity Enhancement OFC delivered relatively steady excess performance in live trading through a model-driven dynamic adjustment mechanism.
The fund's core investment logic has always centered on one principle: not predicting direction, but capturing volatility. In trending markets, the strategy retains beta exposure to core technology indices; in choppy and high-volatility environments, it identifies volatility structure through the model and dynamically adjusts leverage and risk exposure, seeking to improve portfolio return while controlling downside risk.
During the session, the team responded in depth to several issues of greatest interest to investors, including which investor profile the fund is best suited for, how the model has been iterated after live deployment, and how dynamic leverage operates under different market conditions. Since launch, the jQuant model has already completed one core parameter update, further strengthening the responsiveness of its risk control module and improving its ability to identify and adjust risk exposure in highly volatile environments.
Looking ahead, BANDS Jaspil Equity Enhancement OFC will continue to use jQuant as its engine, retaining core beta exposure to technology indices while seeking to capture potential volatility premia through dynamic leverage and disciplined risk control. BANDS Capital will also continue to support investors through different market cycles with institution-grade process discipline, transparent disclosure, and consistent execution.
