Redwheel is a global investment manager specialising in providing strategies that enable clients to invest in developed and emerging market equities, convertible bonds and income solutions that help them meet their long-term financial needs.
Located in London, Singapore and Miami, Redwheel is comprised of an experienced team of investment professionals with expertise in specific fields, one of these being emerging and frontier market equities.
The CC Redwheel Global Emerging Markets Fund (the Fund, previously known as CC RWC Partners Global Emerging Markets Fund) provides investment exposure to global emerging markets and frontier markets with the objective of providing long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is an Australian registered managed investment scheme and invests in the Underlying Fund (the Redwheel Global Emerging Markets Fund), managed by RWC Asset Advisors US LLC (Redwheel).
The team pursues an idea-focused, rather than index-driven, approach to investing which allows them to actively allocate capital across regions and countries irrespective of index weights. To guide their bottom-up fundamental research efforts, the team has built a globally integrated research process in which top-down macro and thematic research dynamically informs the bottom-up perspective. On-the-ground research is a key aspect of the research process, informing and enhancing macro, thematic and company due diligence.

Access to the potential growth of emerging economies – one of the biggest advantages of investing in emerging markets is the potential for high growth. This is through long term capital appreciation of companies in some of the fastest growing countries in the world.
Diversification – an investment in emerging markets can provide a useful source of portfolio diversification as economic downturns in one country or region can be offset by growth in another.
Highly experienced portfolio management and research capabilities – Redwheel’s emerging markets equity team has significant experience in identifying opportunities across their investment universe. Over the past two decades, senior members of the team have invested in more than 120 emerging and frontier markets and have been pioneer investors in smaller markets well before their inclusion in indices.
