The Sharpbridge Equities Fund presents a professionally managed investment for long-term investors seeking to outperform the global equities benchmark.

 

The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of larger-cap companies listed on stock exchanges around the world, employing a distinctive strategy that combines 'bottom-up' fundamental research with a 'top-down' macroeconomic analysis. This approach aims to identify and own undervalued growth businesses that possess clear catalysts for future performance. To manage risk, the Fund maintains a diversified portfolio and does not engage in currency hedging, short-selling, or the use of derivatives.

 

The objective is to capture strong positive relative returns over an investment cycle of five to seven years through this clear, unleveraged investment approach.

Investment Objective
The Fund aims to outperform the Benchmark over the investment cycle (typically 5-7years).
 
Investments Held
The Fund primarily invests in the securities of larger cap companies listed on stock exchanges around the world with some exposure to cash and cash equivalents. The Fund’s strategy is to outperform the benchmark over the medium to long term by investing in a portfolio of global equities. The Fund seeks to identify and own undervalued companies with a focus on growth businesses that have catalyst(s) using proprietary research.
 
The Fund will weight opportunities based on quantitative and qualitative factors through “bottom-up” fundamental research combined with a “top-down” macroeconomic overlay. The fundamental research includes consideration of stock valuation, business quality and future catalysts. To manage risk, the Fund will capture returns through a diversified portfolio of global equities over the cycle. The Fund has an agnostic approach to foreign exchange exposure and as such has no intention to engage in currency hedging. The Fund will not participate in short-selling or derivatives.

Benefits

Investing in the Sharpbridge Equities Fund offers several benefits:

  1. Diversification: The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of global equities, primarily focusing on larger -cap companies listed on stock exchanges around the world. This diversification helps in spreading risk 
    across different markets and sectors.
  2. Professional Management: The fund is managed by the Trustee, which employs a combination of “bottom up” fundamental research and “top-down” macroeconomic analysis to identify and exploit pricing 
    inefficiencies in the market.
  3. Potential for High Returns: The fund aims to outperform the MSCI World NTR Index (AUD) over the investment cycle (typically -5-7 years). It seeks to generate strong positive relative returns. 
  4. Long-Term Investment: The fund is designed for investors who are seeking a higher level of return while accepting a higher level of risk. It is suitable for long-term investment, with a suggested minimum 
    investment timeframe of 5 years.
  5. No Hedging or Leverage: The fund will not engage in foreign currency hedging, short-selling, or derivatives, and it does not borrow or leverage any assets. This approach helps in managing risk and maintaining a 
    clear investment strategy.
  6. Regular Reporting: Investors receive regular performance data and investment commentary on a monthly basis, ensuring transparency and keeping investors informed about the fund’s performance.

These benefits make the Fund an attractive option for investors looking for a professionally managed, diversified, and potentially high-return investment opportunity. 

 

Risks
Different types of investments have different risk characteristics which will affect investment performance. As risk cannot be entirely avoided when investing, the philosophy employed for the Fund is to identify and 
manage risk as far as is practicable.

 

We cannot promise that the ways in which risks are aimed at being managed will always be successful. Neither returns nor the money you invest in the Fund is guaranteed.

 

An investment in the Fund should be regarded as a long-term investment - look to invest for 5-7 years or longer.
