Markets are unpredictable. Your strategy shouldn't be. Zentra delivers market-neutral returns engineered to complement your existing portfolio, providing genuine diversification regardless of where the market heads next.
View Live Returns →A disciplined approach to generating consistent, risk adjusted returns through systematic options strategies and institutional grade execution.
Our strategies are designed to eliminate directional market exposure. By balancing long and short positions through carefully constructed options spreads, we aim to generate returns independent of whether markets rise or fall, focusing instead on volatility dynamics and time decay.
We construct portfolios that behave like fixed income instruments through defined risk option structures. These synthetic positions offer predictable income characteristics with controlled downside, delivering bond like stability without traditional interest rate sensitivity.
Capital preservation is paramount. Every position is structured with explicit risk parameters, maximum loss thresholds, and systematic hedging protocols. We prioritise protecting capital over maximising returns, ensuring drawdowns remain controlled and recoverable.
Our operations reflect institutional standards: robust governance frameworks, independent risk monitoring, transparent reporting, and disciplined execution protocols. Every trade is executed with precision, documented thoroughly, and reviewed continuously.
We do not seek to replace your existing allocations. We complement them with a genuinely uncorrelated return stream that behaves differently from equities, bonds, and traditional managed funds.
Most "diversified" portfolios still move in lockstep during downturns. Our market-neutral strategies are structurally uncorrelated to equity and bond markets, providing the kind of diversification that actually holds when you need it most.
We are not a replacement for your equity portfolio or your financial adviser's strategy. We are a specialist allocation designed to sit alongside your existing investments, smoothing overall portfolio volatility and adding a consistent, alternative income stream.
When traditional markets experience drawdowns, correlated assets tend to fall together. Our delta-neutral approach is built to perform independently of market direction, offering a stabilising anchor for your broader portfolio during periods of uncertainty.

Common questions about our market-neutral strategies and investment approach.
A market neutral strategy aims to generate returns regardless of whether markets go up or down. By balancing long and short positions, we eliminate directional market exposure and instead focus on capturing returns from volatility, time decay, and relative value opportunities. This approach provides genuine diversification and can deliver positive returns even during market downturns.
Inflation plus targeting means we aim to deliver returns that consistently exceed the rate of inflation. Rather than targeting a fixed nominal return, we focus on preserving and growing your purchasing power. For example, if inflation is 3%, our strategies target returns of inflation plus an additional premium (varying by strategy from 2% to 16%), ensuring your capital grows in real terms regardless of the inflationary environment.
All investments carry risk, and options based strategies are no exception. Key risks include: sudden volatility spikes that can cause short term losses, correlation breakdown during market stress, and liquidity risk in extreme conditions. However, our defined risk approach means maximum losses are known in advance, and our multi layered risk management framework includes position limits, hedging protocols, and continuous monitoring to manage these risks systematically.
Our strategies are available to wholesale clients and sophisticated investors as defined under applicable securities laws. This typically includes high net worth individuals, family offices, and institutional investors who meet certain financial thresholds and have experience with complex investment products. We operate under Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL) 700112 through Yellowfin Asset Management.
The minimum investment is USD $100,000. We work with clients to find the most suitable structure based on your specific circumstances and objectives.
We employ multiple layers of capital protection: all positions use defined risk structures with explicit maximum loss limits; portfolio level exposure limits prevent over concentration; systematic hedging protocols respond to changing market conditions; and continuous monitoring ensures adherence to risk parameters. Additionally, as a managed account service, your capital remains in your name at a regulated broker, providing segregation and transparency.
All investors have access to a dedicated client portal with daily updates of their portfolio net asset value. You can log in at any time to view your current performance, positions, and account activity. At the end of each financial year, you also receive a comprehensive tax assurance statement for your records. Our team is always accessible to discuss any questions about your portfolio.
