Investment Objective
The Fund aims to provide a rate of return (after fees and expenses and before taxes) which exceeds the return of the MSCI All Countries World Index over a full market cycle.
Investment Strategy
The Fund invests primarily in common stocks of companies globally. The Fund invests in the securities of companies with three alpha drivers: quality, intrinsic value growth and valuation. The Fund focuses on approximately 35-65 securities which demonstrate these three alpha drivers. The Fund employs a style agnostic approach to finding opportunities, therefore avoiding sub-optimal constraints of style box characteristics. There are no geographic limits on the Fund’s investments, and the Fund may invest in securities of companies located in developed or emerging markets. The Fund typically invests in the securities of larger capitalisation companies and does not invest in companies below $2 billion USD capitalisation.
