Objectives and Strategy
Fund Objective Platinum aims to provide capital growth over the long-term through searching out undervalued companies predominantly listed in Asia.
Fund Strategy The fund may invest in companies not listed in Asia but where the predominant business is conducted in Asia or that benefit from exposure to the Asian economic region. As a consequence of Platinum's investment methodology, the portfolio is built up from a series of individual stock selections rather than by a pre-determined asset allocation or benchmark index. Where undervalued stocks cannot be found, funds may be invested in cash and the Manager may short sell shares that it considers to be over-valued. The fund seeks absolute returns.
