Re: RG 240 Hedge funds: Improving disclosure
In October 2013 ASIC released Regulatory Guide 240 Hedge funds: Improving disclosure. This new regulatory standard aims to assist investors in making more informed decisions about investing in hedge fund products, and to make comparisons between the products and business models of different funds more straightforward.
We are supportive of the enhanced disclosure requirements, and are committed to ensure that investors have all the information they need to make an informed investment decision.
Under RG 240 the PM CAPITAL Funds have been classified as hedge funds. This classification is based on the fact that the Funds exhibits two or more of the characteristics of a hedge fund, being they:
- aim to generate returns that are not highly correlated to published indices;
- charge a performance fee;
- use leverage;
- use derivatives; and/or
- use short selling.
Although our Funds are technically classified as hedge funds, the use of exotic instruments does not form a large component of our investment process and we focus the majority of our attention on fundamental stock picking on the long side. We have been implementing the same philosophy and process of, ‘buying a good business at a good price’ since the inception of the firm in 1998, and this has not wavered.
What does this mean?
Annually we will provide investors with a breakdown of the following;
- the liquidity profile of the portfolio assets as at the end of the period;
- the maturity profile of the liabilities as at the end of the period;
- the leverage ratio (including leverage embedded in the assets of the fund, other than listed equities and bonds);
- the derivative counterparties engaged; and
- the key service providers and any change in their related party status.
This document within the below link breaks down the above components for the PM CAPITAL Funds as at 30 June 2014.

- PM CAPITAL Absolute Performance Fund, ARSN 092 434 618

(collectively the “Funds”), will no longer provide for, or allow, the ‘repurchase of units’ as a means for any unit holder to exit their unit holding in the Fund(s).
For the avoidance of doubt, all unit holders will continue to be able to exit their unit holding through the normal daily redemption process which remains entirely unchanged.
After 31 July 2014, all withdrawal requests will only be processed as a redemption and not as a repurchase.
Unit holders who may have considered the repurchase option as their preferred means of exiting the Funds in the future should have regard to this impending change particularly with respect to any change in the tax consequences that may be applicable.
