Fund OverviewThe Fund is index unaware with an absolute return focus. The Fund seeks to invest in companies generating strong cashflows at attractive valuations. In absence of attractive investments being identified, the fund will hold cash. Glenmore will use a fundamental, research driven investment process to identify undervalued securities.

The main driver of identifying potential investments will be bottom up company analysis, however macro-economic conditions will be considered as part of the investment thesis for each stock.
Manager CommentsThe Glenmore Australian Equities Fund rose +11.52% in August, outperforming the ASX200 Accumulation Index by +8.69%. Since inception in June 2017, the Fund has returned +19.02% p.a. vs the Index's annualised return over the same period of +5.90%. The Fund's up-capture ratio of 216.6% for performance since inception indicates that, on average, the Fund has risen more than twice as much as the market during the market's positive months.

Top contributors to performance in August included People Infrastructure, ARB Corporation, Temple and Webster, Integral Diagnostics, NRW Holdings, Alliance Aviation Services, Fiducian Group, Mineral Resources and Collins Foods. There were no detractors of any materiality during the month.

Glenmore noted in their latest report that in Australia, with the exception of Victoria, all other states appear to have the virus under control. They believe the most likely scenario to be a continuation of the current economic settings (low interest rates, subdued economic growth, fiscal stimulus), which they expect will be sufficient for continued positive market conditions for equity investors.
