| Fund Overview | The Fund aims to produce positive returns irrespective of the direction of the share market. For each investment the manager considers the risk, the timeline of that risk occurring and then the potential return. Low transaction costs and liquidity are other important factors in the success and implementation of the strategies. |
| Manager Comments | Within the Fund, the Convergence strategy was the largest positive contributor for the month +0.26%. The main driver was the Wesfarmers Partially Protected shares against the underlying Wesfarmers shares. The Long/Short strategy whilst not generally a large part of the Fund's exposure was profitable (+0.12%) relative to the weighting while the Mergers and Acquisitions strategy also performed well (+0.19%). The Yield portfolio (+0.16%) saw the redemption of the Westpac Preferred Security in line with the Fund's timetable. The Options portfolio was a large drawdown on the monthly return (-0.20%) as realisable volatility remained low despite the potential political and global macro catalysts. |
