The fund's objective is to achieve long term capital growth from a global portfolio of equities. The manager takes a contrarian approach, looking for stocks he sees as having unrecognised value. These may include companies undergoing restructuring or in industries going through structural change, companies with unappreciated growth potential or whose market value is substantially below their asset value. Ideas can be sourced from "traditional" bottom-up stockpicking or by identifying global themes, then looking for industries and stocks that will benefit from them.
The fund will invest in larger, medium and smaller sized companies but tends to have a bias to companies capitalised at $1-10billion which the manager believes are under-researched. In additional to his long exposure the manager also uses his UCITS 3 powers to short stocks he believes will fall in value. Due to their higher risk shorts are selected with a 6 month time horizon, whereas the manager takes a 12-18 month view on long exposure.
