CI Asian Equities Fund - Managed Fund (Closed)

Fund Objective
The object of the Fund is to generate long term returns by investing in a range of listed Asian securities, incorporating small cap, mid cap and large cap stocks. In addition, the Fund has flexibility to invest in securities listed outside of Asia where those securities have a significant proportion of their sales, assets or profits from the Asian region.
Fund Strategy
The Fund aims to invest in quality companies with a strong value proposition. We try to understand 'downside risk' as well as 'upside potential' in assessing the investment merit of stocks. The Manager uses CI's VoF investment process, incorporating strong fundamentally driven research in its search for suitable investments. A minimum of 70% of the Fund's exposure to foreign currency is unhedged.
