The fund aims to achieve long-term capital growth from investment in companies operating in the South East Asia region.
The fund manager draws heavily on the expertise of the regional network of Jardine Fleming offices to make both corporate and country decisions. Stocks are rated on a scale of 1 to 5. This process is mirrored by the investment committee, of which Ted Pullings is a member, for the various regions although ultimately stock selection takes precedence to the macro outlook.
The approach is to invest in Asia's best companies, which offer transparent management, good growth at a reasonable price and efficient use of capital. The Jardine Fleming research team carry out 3,500 company visits a year.
This product should be considered at the higher end of the risk scale relative to the benchmark for investments within this region, as the manager is given considerable latitude versus the fund's benchmark.
