Investment Objectives

The fund seeks to provide long term capital growth by investing primarily in equities in the global far east.

Investment Strategy

The fund manager uses an All Cap Growth at a Reasonable Price (GARP) investment style where stock selection is based primarily upon the valuation of the underlying company and the relative attraction of its growth profile. Depending on the stage of the economic cycle and market conditions the portfolio manager will operate bottom up fundamental analysis and top down macro analysis either individually or together so as to optimise portfolio returns.
