Key Features

About the Fund

The Flinders Emerging Companies Fund provides investors with an actively managed portfolio of listed small and emerging Australian companies.

Our three founding partners have exceptional credentials in investment management, bringing combined experience of 60 years to the fund. Most importantly, our own significant investment in the fund means our financial success is directly aligned with that of our investors.

The experience and successful track record of our investment team, combined with our in-depth proprietary research and analysis, makes us one of the top investment managers in Australian small and emerging companies.

Our stock research focus

It is our research process that drives our ability to identify opportunities. Importantly, the research is driven by our team of talented and experienced investment professionals.

Our research is in two parts:

  1. Proprietary research of the company - its growth opportunities, applicable strategy, quality of management, industry dynamics, execution risks and ESG assessment; and
  2. Financial analysis of the company - modelling of earnings, cashflow and balance sheet, and the valuation of the company.

Mandate

How we invest your money

The Fund will invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks comprising listed (or soon to be listed companies) companies that are outside the S&P/ASX 100 Index (90%-100% of the Fund) with the remainder of the Fund in cash (0%-10%).

Flinders will use the following guidelines when selecting investments for the Fund:

  • Minimum of 30 companies;
  • Maximum of 60 companies;
  • Maximum shareholding of 10% in any one listed company;
  • No more than 10% of the portfolio in any one company;
  • A company's holding in the portfolio will not exceed 5% (overweight) above or less than 5% (underweight) below the benchmark weight;
  • Where securities subsequently become part of the S&P/ASX 100 Index, they will continue to be actively managed and sold within 12 months following the inclusion of the securities in the S&P/ASX 100 Index;
  • The Fund may use derivatives for risk management purposes, as substitutes for physical securities; and
  • The Fund will not be geared.
