Fund Objective
To provide absolute returns in excess of the RBA cash rate before fees and taxes over rolling three-year periods.

The fund will generally hold lower risk, fundamentally attractive companies and short (selling) higher risk, fundamentally unattractive companies. The fund aims to hedge currency risk.
