Mandate

How we invest your money

The Company's investment strategy is to construct a concentrated portfolio of global equities securities using the Manager's distinctively contrarian high conviction, benchmark independent investment approach. The trade-off between risk and potential return is improved by implementing the highest conviction ideas from a filtered universe of securities that the Manager feels are temporarily misunderstood and fundamentally mispriced. The Manager will undertake disciplined bottom up' stock selection based on rigorous fundamental analysis in respect of the stocks identified. This is overlayed with the Manager's top down' assessment of macroeconomic conditions and the market outlook. In following this approach, the Manager aims to allocate capital to securities which have a compelling risk/reward profile.

The Company may invest in a wide range of securities, including equities, debt, interest products, foreign currencies, cash and Derivatives.

Derivatives may be used as part of its overall investment strategy, including but not limited to the purpose of hedging the Investment Portfolio, to increase or decrease individual security, portfolio or country exposures with the aim of generating or protecting returns. The Company may use exchange traded or OTC Derivatives.

The key dependencies underpinning the investment strategy are the research, analysis, skill and experience of the Manager as well as market conditions.
