Fairlight Global Small & Mid Capital Hedged - Managed Fund

Fund Objective
The Fund aims to achieve annualised returns in excess of the benchmark after all fees and expenses measured over a market cycle, which we consider to be 7 years. Returns are not guaranteed.
Fund Strategy
The Fund takes a bottom up approach to investing with deep fundamental research of both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of investee companies. The Fund is benchmark unaware as the Investment Manager believes this unconstrained approach allows maximum flexibility to pursue attractive risk adjusted investments. The intention of the Fund is to hold high quality businesses that generate attractive returns on capital employed through a full market cycle with low levels of debt, managed by competent executive teams that are highly aligned.
