| Fund Overview | - Australian and International Equity Long/Short - Global Fixed Income Long/Short - Global Macro - Commodity Alpha - Alpha Transport The Fund's goal is to provide investors with a source of consistent, risk-controlled, absolute returns that are over time, expected to have low correlations with the returns of major asset classes. The Fund aims to achieve a return of 8% p.a. before fees, above the RBA Cash Rate Target over rolling 3 year periods. In order to achieve its expected return objective, the Fund will target a total expected risk of between 4-6% p.a. over the same rolling 3 year period. |
| Manager Comments | The Multi Opportunity Fund delivered strong performance in October with strong contributions from both Global Equity Long/Short and European Equity Long/Short strategies. The International Alpha Transport, Fixed Income Global Alpha and Australian Equity Long/Short strategies also added value. Global Macro had a small negative contribution. The fund returned 1.83% gross of fees versus the RBA cash benchmark return of 0.21%. Year to date, the Fund has returned 7.36% gross of fees. The Australian Equity Long/Short strategy's performance benefited from an overweight to iron ore producers versus other miners. Underweight positions in mining services companies were also profitable with further downgrades across the sector. Other outperforming positions were over-weights in wealth managers which continue to run due to exposure to the rising market, and positive stock selection within the healthcare sector. The main performance detractors came from underweight positions in domestic cyclicals such as building materials, retail and media. |
