Claremont Global Fund (hedged)(ASX:CGHE) is an actively managed equity fund seeking to generate absolute returns of 8-12% per annum over 5-7 years by investing in a concentrated portfolio of high-quality, undervalued global companies.

 

The fund aims to outperform its benchmark by employing a fundamental, bottom-up investment approach.

 

Unlike its unhedged counterpart, CGHE aims to mitigate currency fluctuations through the use of derivatives, providing investors with exposure to international equity markets without the added currency risk.

 

As an Active Exchange Traded Managed Fund (ETMF), it offers the transparency and trading flexibility of an ETF combined with the active management expertise of a traditional fund.

The Fund is a long-only equity fund accessing markets outside of Australia. The Manager aims to generate absolute returns of 8-12 per cent per annum over a 5-7 year investment cycle.
 
The Investment Manager would also expect to outperform the Fund’s Benchmark over this period after fees.
 
The Investment Manager has a fundamental, bottom-up approach to investing and invests without reference to the composition of any index.
 
The Fund’s philosophy is to own a concentrated portfolio of 10-15 high quality, value-creating businesses at material discounts to their intrinsic value.
 
The Fund will also invest in Derivatives, to the extent necessary to hedge the Fund’s foreign currency exposure.
 
Asset allocation 
The Fund investments are subject to the following constraints/restrictions:
  • Cash weighting – maximum 10% of the gross asset value of the Fund.
  • Single stock weighting – maximum 10% of the gross asset value of the Fund.
The Fund will only invest in Derivatives for currency hedging purposes with the aim to minimise the effect of currency movements within the portfolio by hedging, as far as is practicable, all foreign currency exposures into Australian dollars. 
 
Currency hedging will be implemented through the use of forward foreign exchange contracts, however the hedge may not provide complete protection from adverse currency movements. Short selling of equity securities or equity indexes is not permitted.
 

The Fund may be suitable for investors seeking to have an exposure to international equity markets outside Australia and the currencies of those international equity markets.

 

Recommended investment time frame

The minimum suggested time frame for investment in the Fund is 5 to 7 years.

An Active ETMF is actively managed by a fund manager. Active ETMFs operate in a similar way to traditional managed funds but have the benefit of transparent, live intra-day pricing and T+2 settlement.

 

Active ETMFs allow simplicity in investing as you invest simply through the ASX with lower minimum investment amounts compared to traditional unlisted managed funds. Investors also have the benefit of seeing live trading prices, a full disclosure of the portfolio on a quarterly basis and the ability to buy and sell intraday on the ASX.
