This actively managed fund aims to deliver long-term capital growth by investing in a concentrated portfolio of Japanese companies that demonstrate strong Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) characteristics. The core strategy involves identifying high-quality, undervalued businesses with sustainable competitive advantages. By focusing on a select number of holdings, the investment team seeks to ensure that its highest-conviction ideas can significantly contribute to performance. The strategy explicitly integrates ESG analysis, targeting firms poised for sustainable growth while adhering to specific ethical exclusions.
The investment process is driven by fundamental, bottom-up research. The portfolio managers conduct in-depth analysis of individual companies, scrutinizing their financial strength, management effectiveness, and industry dynamics. Sustainability is a key pillar of this evaluation, with ESG factors considered integral to assessing a company's long-term risk and return potential. The fund systematically avoids companies with significant involvement in areas such as thermal coal, controversial weapons, and tobacco, reinforcing its commitment to responsible investing. This disciplined approach aims to construct a portfolio of durable businesses capable of performing across different market cycles.
This product is tailored for investors seeking targeted exposure to the Japanese equity market through a sustainable and actively managed strategy. Its concentrated nature suggests it is best suited for individuals with a long-term investment horizon and a moderate to high tolerance for risk. The fund can function as a core Japanese equity allocation or as a satellite holding within a broader global portfolio, offering the potential to generate alpha through skilled stock selection and a focus on companies leading in sustainability practices.
