SICAV
Emerging Markets Discovery Equity Fund
A focused, yet well-diversified, actively managed all-cap fund of typically 50-80 emerging markets companies. We seek to identify "forgotten" stocks that are under-owned and under-researched by mainstream investors, and which we believe are positioned to benefit from a fundamental re-rating. The fund is categorised as Article 8 under Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR).

Fund Summary
We look for signs of positive fundamental change among stable, but unloved, businesses that we believe are facing unwarranted scepticism from investors. Meeting company management is central to our approach, as we aim to identify quality teams with strategic vision, a roadmap for success and the ability to execute. The promotion of environmental and/or social characteristics is achieved through the fund's commitment to maintain at least 10% of the value of its portfolio invested in Sustainable Investments, as defined by the SFDR. Additionally, we apply a proprietary responsible screen (exclusion list). The manager is not constrained by the fund’s benchmark, which is used for performance comparison purposes only.
