| Fund Overview | The Arnott Opportunities Fund objective is to provide investors with absolute returns, employing an equity long/short strategy. The investment universe is primarily Pan Asia. The strategy behind the fund employs a combination of three processes, namely quantitative and qualitative analysis, to identify long and short ideas; event screens to identify a catalyst; and risk/reward analysis to construct investments that have an asymmetric payoff. The portfolio usually contains 100-plus investments and, of these, 5 to 40 may contain derivatives. |
| Manager Comments | Arnott's performance has bounced back over the past four months at the same time as assets have stabilised. Arnott believes that market patterns are showing mixed signals and are expecting a pullback before year's end (most likely in November) however they feel the retracement is unlikely to be large, and remain focused on stocks and portfolio mix rather than overall direction. |
