The Perpetual Pure Equity Alpha Fund is an absolute return portfolio of the best share opportunities we have identified (both long and short), and is managed by one of Australia's most experienced equity teams.
 
The Fund aims to generate positive returns with minimal volatility over equity market cycles. By combining both long (to hold) and short (to sell) positions the Fund is able to take advantage of rising and falling markets and provide some protection against falling markets.
 
We employ our tried and proven bottom-up stock selection process for both long and short positions. Through fundamental company research, we aim to identify opportunities to buy quality, undervalued companies. On the short side of the portfolio we opportunistically target stocks that we expect will underperform. We rarely short the index, we short companies.

Utilising Perpetual's proven investment process, the Fund will adopt the same disciplined investment approach as is used across Perpetual's equity funds. Our conservative bottom-up approach to stock picking is core to the investment approach for this Fund, allowing the portfolio manager to identify and select stocks for both the long and short positions of the Fund. The investment process is based on comprehensive internal company research using four filters:

  • sound management;
  • conservative debt levels;
  • quality of business; and
  • recurring earnings.

The Fund's portfolio is then created within specific investment guidelines and a risk-controlled framework. The Fund will predominantly invest in Australian shares (both long and short), cash may be used defensively to preserve capital and it can invest opportunistically (both long and short) in global shares.

 

Derivatives may be used in managing the Fund^.

Perpetual Limited is a diversified financial services company which has been serving Australians since 1886 when it was established as a trustee company by a group of businessmen including Sir Edmund Barton, later to be Australia’s first Prime Minister. That trustee heritage – and the culture it created around putting clients first – is what makes Perpetual unique.

 

Over more than 135 years we have supported clients and communities through periods of great change and volatility, continuing to evolve to provide products and services to meet the changing needs of our clients – some of which span five generations.

 

Today, we are an ASX-listed company (ASX:PPT) headquartered in Sydney, Australia, providing asset management, private wealth and trustee services to local and international clients. Our operations span Australia, Asia, Europe, the United Kingdom and the United States.

 

At Perpetual, we are, and have always been, committed to acting in the best interests of our clients and the communities we support to ensure a positive impact and help build a sustainable future. We aim to be the most trusted brand in financial services.
