Fund/Strategy Overview:
The Collins St Value Fund is an index unaware fund which aims to provide strong investment returns over the medium and long term, with capital preservation a priority.
The Manager aims to create and maintain a concentrated portfolio of ASX listed companies that they have researched and which they consider are undervalued. They will assess the attractiveness of potential investments using a number of common industry based measures, a proprietary in-house model and by speaking with management, industry experts and competitors. Once the Manager forms a view that an investment offers sufficient upside potential relative to the downside risk, the fund will seek to make an investment. If no appropriate investment can be identified the managers are prepared to hold cash and wait for the right opportunities to present themselves. |
