Benefits of investing in the Altrinsic Global Equities Trust

Access to global investment opportunities

Altrinsic evaluates companies as if purchasing them outright with its own capital.

Mandate

How we invest your money

Altrinsic applies a disciplined four step investment process:

  1. Sourcing ideas - ideas are generated through the use of a proprietary screening process and in the course of the investment team's on-the-ground company research. It searches developed and emerging markets to uncover companies with unrealised value.
  2. Fundamental analysis - this process begins with the long-term historical analysis of a company's fundamental performance drivers. Altrinsic's investment team evaluates management capabilities, strategy, and execution, and forecasts cash flow generation under "normal conditions and then adjusts for associated risks. Intrinsic value is determined by applying multiple valuation measures.
  3. Constructing the portfolio - a high conviction portfolio of the investment team's best investment ideas is constructed from the bottom-up on a stock-by-stock basis. Region, industry, and market capitalisation exposures are an outcome of this company-specific approach. The Trust typically invests in 60-100 companies.
  4. Managing risk - risk management is applied throughout the investment process at both the company level and the portfolio level.

By applying this investment approach, Altrinsic believes it can achieve the Trust's investment return objective.
