Fund OverviewAllard Partners is an absolute return, long only equity investor with a single mission to provide its clients with a net compound rate of return on their capital of 15% per annum over the long term. With offices in Hong Kong, India and Australia, Allard invests in quoted companies in the Asia Pacific region.

Allard's investment approach has remained consistent throughout their history: That is to invest prudently but proactively in well-managed businesses that achieve superior returns on capital in industries with long-term growth potential.

The Manager uses both broad top-down guidance and detailed bottom-up analysis to identify suitable markets, industries and companies. Although long only investors, a critical factor in their strategy and performance is the ability to hold cash when they cannot find companies that meet their criteria or are at a sufficient discount to their valuations.
Manager CommentsThe Manager's monthly performance report indicated some caution as cash and fixed income allocation at the end of June stood at 21%, with industry breakdown reasonably distributed across sectors, with the heaviest allocations to Financial Services (14.8%) followed by Telco's and Media & Communications at 11.7% and 7% respectively.

The portfolio remains concentrated, reflecting the manager's high conviction approach, with 38% of NAV across the top 5 stocks, 14% allocated to the next five, leaving 27% allocated to the remaining holdings. Geographically the breakdown was heavily weighted to HK and China at 47%, followed by Singapore and India each representing approximately 12% each, and just 1% each to Indonesia and Vietnam.
