Our view

Why we like the fund: This fund invests in smaller companies across Asia, in countries like China, India and South Korea. It is looking for future winners from a region that is an important driver of global growth. The manager is a seasoned Asia investor and has been running the strategy for a long time. Understanding this universe of companies is resource-intensive, so it is good to see an extensive, high-quality pool of equity analysts in the wider team. How to use the fund: Asian economies are growing at faster rates than more mature, developed markets and this should enhance the opportunity. Investing in smaller companies, increases risk, but also potential return. This fund would be a useful addition, as a small weighting, to the riskier allocations within any diversified portfolio. A long-term view of ten plus years is needed.
