Proprietary Capital Strategy

At Odette, we manage proprietary capital with a long-term stewardship mindset, combining disciplined equity ownership with an active, structured options program designed to enhance portfolio efficiency and manage exposure across market conditions.
 
While a core portion of capital is allocated to long-term equity holdings, a designated segment is managed more actively through systematic options strategies that support income generation, disciplined entry and exit, and volatility management. This structure allows the firm to remain responsive to market conditions while maintaining a conservative, ownership-oriented foundation.
 
Our investment universe is intentionally narrow and focused on highly liquid, institutionally traded equities with durable business models, deep options markets, and transparent pricing. We prioritize companies that support efficient options execution and consistent portfolio management, including large-cap technology, semiconductors, renewable power, and select blue-chip equities.
 
Liquidity and market depth are essential, enabling the ongoing implementation of options strategies within clearly defined risk parameters. Investment decisions are informed by a combination of fundamental assessment, market context, and observable trading dynamics, with emphasis placed on repeatability and capital preservation.
 
Odette’s portfolio construction integrates long-only equity exposure with a fully collateralized, actively managed options overlay embedded directly into day-to-day capital management.
 
This framework includes:
  • Disciplined position entry through cash-secured put strategies
  • Ongoing income generation via covered call programs on core holdings
  • Active management of option maturities, strike selection, and exposure levels
All options activity is fully funded, risk-defined, and directly linked to underlying equity positions. The firm does not employ leverage, naked options, or speculative derivatives structures. Options are used intentionally as a tool to improve capital efficiency and moderate portfolio volatility over time.
 
Risk management is continuous and structural. Portfolio exposure is governed by liquidity thresholds, position sizing discipline, and predefined options structures that limit downside while allowing for measured participation in favorable market environments.
 
By embedding options management within the broader portfolio framework, Odette maintains a disciplined approach to capital stewardship that balances activity with restraint and adaptability with durability.
 
All strategies are implemented exclusively with proprietary capital and reflect the firm’s commitment to disciplined, long-term capital management.
