INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES

The Fund aims to achieve capital growth by investing predominantly in a concentrated portfolio of U.S. Equities.

The Fund’s Sub-Investment Manager, Yacktman Asset Management LP, was established in 1992, operates out of Austin, Texas, and currently manage approximately USD 16.2 billion.

The firm seeks to be objective, patient and diligent in its investment approach, analysing investments from the bottom up. The investment philosophy focuses on purchasing high quality businesses with shareholder-orientated management at cheap valuations. The approach is that of investing in businesses and not speculating in stocks, focusing on companies that have a strong market position and relatively stable profit margins. The favoured companies typically sell products or services that have fairly predictable demand. Securities are selected one at a time with an emphasis on not overpaying, as a good business purchased at too high a price can be a bad investment. Stephen Yacktman was nominated for Morningstar’s Domestic Stock Fund Manager of the Year - 2011.
