This fund typically allocates a minimum of 80% of its total capital to equity securities, primarily focusing on common shares. It maintains a concentrated portfolio, generally holding between 30 and 80 individual stocks, sourced from both domestic and international issuers. The investment approach is flexible, allowing the fund to target either 'growth' or 'value' companies, or a combination of both. To select investments, the adviser employs a rigorous fundamental analysis, thoroughly evaluating factors such as each issuer's financial condition, its position within its industry, and broader market and economic trends.
