Fund OverviewThe Pengana Asia Special Events (Onshore) Fund employs an event-driven investment strategy that seeks to exploit the mispricing of securities of companies involved in corporate transactions within the Asian (including Japan, Australia and New Zealand) region.

The Fund seeks to profit from trading securities which are primarily subject to corporate events or from trading-related securities which the Investment Manager believes are mispriced by the market. The Fund invests in securities that are listed on Asian stock markets and other markets where related securities may be listed and in securities which are listed on markets outside of Asia where more than 70% (by assets or earnings) of the underlying business originates from an Asian country.

The Fund aims to generate consistently positive returns which have a low correlation to the Asian stock markets. The objective is to generate 10-20% pa with a standard deviation of 6-10%
Manager CommentsThe Pengana Asia Special Events (Onshore) Fund returned 1.09% over July 2013 and 11.35% for the previous 12 months.

The Fund finished +1.1% for the month of July 2013, compared to the FTSE Asia Pacific Index which closed +1.4%. Capital Management trades contributed over half of the Fund's absolute performance during July. In terms of countries, positions in Japan and Hong Kong / China proved the most fruitful, while Australian positions detracted slightly. The Fund maintained average net and gross exposure of 11% and 179% respectively.
