Fund OverviewThe Collins Street Value Fund is an index unaware fund which seeks to create strong investment returns over the medium and long term with capital preservation a priority.

The managers of the fund intend to maintain a concentrated portfolio of investments in ASX listed companies that they have investigated and consider to be 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 managers form 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.
Manager CommentsThe Collins St Value Fund rose +1.02% in February, taking 12-month performance to +51.42% vs the ASX200 Accumulation Index's +6.48%. Since inception in February 2016, the Fund has returned +17.67% p.a. vs the Index's +10.17%. The Fund's capacity to significantly outperform in falling and volatile markets is highlighted by its Sortino ratio (since inception) of 1.26 vs the Index's 0.79, and down-capture ratio (since inception) of 38.3%.

The Fund has achieved up-capture and down-capture ratios over the past 12 months of 191.57% and 57.8%. This indicates that, on average, the Fund has risen almost twice as much as the market during the market's positive months while falling approximately half as much as the market during the market's negative months.

The Fund has outperformed the market in 6 out of 10 of the market's worst months since the Fund's inception, notably outperforming by +4.9% during March 2020 when the Index fell -20.7%.
