Fund strategy

Investment criteria

The Investment Manager will target approximately 10-20 investments (primarily listed companies) which may exhibit some, or all of the following characteristics:

ability to disrupt existing markets and businesses
ability to utilise new technology to disrupt
growth potential
scalability
appropriate capital structure to fund research and development, as well as growth

Market reach

Complementing a relatively large exposure to major listed global companies will be a selection of smaller positions identified by the Investment Manager that have the potential to disrupt existing industries and companies.

The majority of investments are expected to be in overseas companies.

Fund construction

The fund is constructed in a concentrated, benchmark unaware manner. The Investment Manager will target the following investment parameters for the Fund:

10-30investments
30-98%listed international securities
up to 20%listed Australian equities
2-50%cash

At the time of acquisition, there will be a maximum weighting of 15 per cent for any one security and not more than 20 per cent of the fund to comprise unlisted securities, measured at the time of the latest acquisition of unlisted securities.

Risk management

It is not presently intended that the Fund will hedge against currency risk, and as such performance of the Fund will be impacted by currency fluctuations.

Investment committee

The Fund is managed with the input of Raymond Tong, the fund’s Portfolio Manager and an Investment Committee comprised of highly experienced industry professionals including David Thodey, Richard Goyder, Paul Bassat, Sally Herman, Jeffrey Cole and David Evans.

The Investment Committee and Portfolio Manager understand the role that technology and innovation play in global and domestic markets and have deep insight and experience in this type of investing. The Investment Committee will recommend suitable investments to the Investment Manager, which is responsible for approval, trade execution and fund management.
