PM Capital's Global Companies Fund has been awarded the 2018 Money Management/ Lonsec Fund Manager of the Year Award in the “Long/ Short” category.
The award is judged on “managers who have performed well against the benchmark within their category and have strong positive qualitative momentum, as assessed by [researcher] Lonsec.”
Paul Moore, PM Capital’s founder, first investor and Portfolio Manager of the Global Companies Fund since inception, said:
“The recognition we’ve received from Lonsec and Money Management is testament to the hard work that the team at PM Capital has put in and the returns they have generated for investors over both the long and short term. Congratulations to the team.
“Thanks to Lonsec and Money Management for the award – we’ll continue to use our high conviction and unconstrained investment style with the goal of producing attractive returns for investors."
Commenting on the win, Lonsec said:
“Paul Moore has been a mainstay of Australia’s funds management industry over three decades. Moore’s determined, longterm, contrarian perspective has rewarded patient and stoic unitholders."
As at 31 December 2017, PM Capital’s global strategy was the number one performer in its peer group over five, six, seven, eight and nine years.*
The Global Companies Fund aims to create long term wealth through a concentrated portfolio of 25-45 global companies that we believe are trading at prices different to their intrinsic values.
It aims to provide long term capital growth by a demonstrated, focused, patient and considered process.
“If we don’t have conviction that an investment will provide a reasonable rate of return, we don’t invest in it – period.
We have a small, focused team that only looks for the genuine anomalies in markets - no matter where they occur around the world.”
