About BDMIX

The BlackRock Global Equity Market Neutral Fund is an alternative mutual fund designed to provide true diversification and consistent returns by employing a market-neutral equity strategy. Its primary function is to generate returns independent of broad equity market movements by simultaneously taking long and short positions in equities and related derivatives, focusing on equities from developed markets. The fund utilizes a sophisticated, quantitative research process, leveraging BlackRock’s team of researchers and advanced technologies—such as machine learning and big data analysis—to systematically identify overvalued and undervalued stocks through proprietary signals and ranking methodologies. With an average net market exposure of less than 10% since inception, the strategy seeks to minimize sensitivity to directional market risk while maintaining a diversified profile, often involving thousands of holdings on both sides of the portfolio. Managed by BlackRock’s well-regarded systematic active equity team, the fund’s robust and adaptive investment process is notable for its ability to rapidly incorporate new data and market themes, aiming for a consistent, differentiated return stream compared to traditional equity funds. This fund does not follow a sustainable or ESG mandate and is structured primarily for institutional investors seeking diversification within multi-asset portfolios.
