Fund OverviewThe Fund runs a relatively concentrated portfolio which allows our best ideas to drive performance. The Fund also invests with a longer term time horizon than many in the investment management industry as we believe that, given time, the underlying value of a well chosen business will always prevail over short-term mis-pricing that may occur in a company's securities.

The Fund will invest in securities where Avenir believes the company is simply mis-priced and deeply undervalued and offers significant potential for revaluation. The Fund will also invest in companies that are subject to specific corporate events such as mergers, acquisitions, restructurings, recapitalisations, spin-offs, demergers, management change, distressed situations, and other sharply delineated corporate events. The Fund will also selectively invest in short positions in companies where Avenir believes the company is significantly overvalued or where the company's business model is broken or structurally challenged.
Manager CommentsAvenir Value Fund rose 7.8% in February to bring a Fund's Annual Return per annum to 17.00%. The Fund's cumulative performance since inception was 75.6% compared to the MSCI All Cap All Country Accumulation Index's 41.9%.

The Fund's Sharpe and Sortino ratios are 1.17 and 2.04 respectively since inception in August 2011. Also notable are the Up and Down capture ratios at 0.42 and -0.24 respectively. At month-end the Fund's geographical disposition was 45% US, 14% Asia, 11% Western Europe with 1% Australia, 15% other and 15% cash. The top 10 holdings were 58% of NAV.
