Fund Overview | The Investment Manager follows a defined investment process which is underpinned by detailed bottom up fundamental analysis, overlayed with sectoral and macroeconomic research. This is combined with an extensive company visitation program where we endeavour to meet with company management and with other stakeholders such as suppliers, customers and industry bodies to improve our information set. Surrey Asset Management defines its investment process as Qualitative, Quantitative and Value Latencies (QQV). In essence, the Investment Manager thoroughly researches an investment's qualitative and quantitative characteristics in an attempt to find value latencies not yet reflected in the share price and then clearly defines a roadmap to realisation of those latencies. Developing this roadmap is a key step in the investment process. By articulating a clear pathway as to how and when an investment can realise what the Investment Manager sees as latent value, defines the investment proposition and lessens the impact of cognitive dissonance. This is undertaken with a philosophical underpinning of fact-based investing, transparency, authenticity and accountability. |
Manager Comments | The Fund concluded the month with 27 holdings and 10% in cash. Surrey noted that this larger than normal cash holding is a reflection of stock sales toward the end of the month as opposed to a negative view on the market. The fund top holding at the end of the month included Auckland International Airport, Imricor Medical Systems, Omni Bridgeway, Pointsbet and Xero Limited. In the approach to Christmas Surrey are expecting a large number of Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) as companies look to benefit from liquid markets as well as bolster their balance sheets, following the scare many experienced earlier in the year. |
