Baza High Conviction Fund

The Baza High Conviction Fund is a long only small-cap fund targeting undervalued emerging companies on the ASX. 

The Fund actively targets and invests in companies with the ability to generate sustainable, long-term shareholder returns.

The Fund utilises a comprehensive responsible investment framework that has generated a concentrated portfolio (typically 25-35 companies).

We believe there is significant opportunity for heightened long-term returns through investing in future facing industries. Examples of some of the future facing industries that we focus on (non-exhaustive):

• Healthcare
• Education
• Electrification minerals
• Renewable energy
• Carbon mitigation
• Such industries have tailwinds due to the likelihood of government and regulatory support, accentuated flows of capital, and other idiosyncratic long term macro trends.

The Fund has a high risk, high return profile. It aims to materially outperform its Benchmark (the S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries Accumulation Index) over a 3 to 5 year period.

The Fund is open to wholesale investors and available on the HUB24 platform.
