Ellerston Australian Share Fund - Managed Fund (Closed)

Fund Objective
The investment objective of the Fund over time is to outperform the Benchmark. The Fund aims to achieve this by investing in a concentrated portfolio comprising no more than 25 Australian listed securities. Where there is a lack of suitable investment opportunities or as a means of preserving capital, the Fund may hold up to 25% of its Net Asset Value in Cash.
Fund Strategy
The Fund is intended to be suitable for investors with a medium to long term investment timeframe who are looking to invest in an actively managed concentrated portfolio of Australian listed securities. The Fund's investment philosophy is built around the assertion that the Australian sharemarket is inefficient and 'dislocations' or mispricing opportunities frequently prevail across industries and in particular stocks.
