This is a long-only fund using a flexible and unconstrained approach-based bottom-up stock selection and company fundamentals. With a 24-year track record, the strategy aims to invest across the market cap spectrum, focusing on companies with both an income yield and long-term capital growth.
The fund aims to provide both an income yield and long-term capital growth, mainly by investing in the equity of companies quoted on the stock exchanges of the Asia and Pacific region, including Japan, Australia and India, that we believe will become the market leaders of the future.
The fund’s nominal benchmark is the MSCI All-Country Asia Pacific Index in sterling, but it is not constrained to follow this or any other index. Typical of the fund’s unconstrained approach is that its active share, a measure of the percentage of holdings that differ from the benchmark index, is typically greater than 80%. The typical number of positions within the portfolio is around 60 to 80.

Our strategies are unconstrained, high conviction, long only equity strategies, which invest across the market cap spectrum; where typically 30-60% of the portfolio is invested in small and mid-cap, defined as companies with a market cap between US$100mn – US$10bn. We believe that quality companies, which may be small or medium sized, often undiscovered, mispriced and overlooked by the market and exposed to predictable structural changes, have the greatest potential to generate alpha. Our strategy allows us to follow those changes and gives us a clear idea of how they will perform over the longer term. We like innovative companies across industries and sectors which are at the heart of change, solving real world challenges.

A fund is an investment that pools together the money from many individual investors. Fund managers then invest this money in a wide range of shares according to the objective of the fund. Each investor is issued units, which represent a portion of the holdings of the fund. These units can be bought or sold on a daily basis.
Funds are a popular choice with investors because they offer access to a ready-made investment portfolio that is managed by a sector specialist. You get instant access to a diversified portfolio for a much lower cost than purchasing the individual investments yourself and an improved liquidity profile with daily dealing.
