Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve absolute returns on investment whilst focusing on capital preservation and mitigating some market risk. The Fund intends to accomplish its set objective through superior securities selection and taking advantage of opportunities arising from inefficiencies and imbalances in markets and individual securities pricing.

Investment Strategy

The Fund will follow a long/short strategy. The Portfolio Manager will seek to identify and buy shares in companies which the Portfolio Manager believes are undervalued in the marketplace, and short sell shares in companies which the Portfolio Manager perceives as overvalued in the market place. This may be on either a relative valuation basis or an outright valuation basis.
