Overview | The Fund holds a concentrated portfolio of ASX listed small cap securities (“microcaps”) that are selected using a value orientated ‘best ideas’ investment philosophy. |
Investments | Investments are likely to be in small companies with the majority selected from outside the top 300 listed securities. |
Benchmark | S&P/ASX Small Ords. |
Date commenced | 23 December 2011 |
Microcaps typically have little analyst coverage as institutions are unable to deploy meaningful amounts of capital and therefore cannot justify investing in research. This means many companies outside the main ASX indices are under-researched and undiscovered. This can give rise to situations where companies trade well below our assessed value.
We seek to identify pricing discrepancies in these ‘under-researched’ stocks and blend together a portfolio of investments that offers the highest risk adjusted after-tax expected return. The Fund will typically hold between 15 and 40 investments. There is a cap on the Fund size to maximise performance potential.
