| Fund Overview | Insync employs four simple screens to narrow the universe of over 40,000 listed companies globally to a focus group of high-quality companies that it believes have the potential to consistently grow their profits and dividends. These screens are: size of the company, balance sheet performance, valuation and dividend quality. Companies that pass this due diligence process are then valued using dividend discount models, free cash flow yield and proprietary implied growth and expected return models. The end result is a high conviction portfolio typically of 15-30 stocks. The principal investments will be in shares of companies listed on international stock exchanges (including the US, Europe and Asia). The Fund may also hold cash, derivatives (for example futures, options and swaps), currency contracts, American Depository Receipts and Global Depository Receipts. The Fund may also invest in various types of international pooled investment vehicles. |
| Manager Comments | Insync attribute the Fund's June performance to strong contributions from stock selection. Positive performers included Booking Holdings, Visa, Zoetis, Facebook and Boston Scientific Corp. Detractors included Ross Stores, London Stock Exchange, PayPal Holdings, Reed Elsevier and Amadeus IT. There continues to be no currency hedging as Insync consider the main risks to the Australian dollar to be on the downside. |
