Our view

person-circle-filled

Why we like the fund: This fund invests in what the manager considers to be leading companies listed in Asia. Stewart Investors is also one of the pioneers in sustainable investing, which is an added benefit of its approach. The manager has a long tradition investing in the region and an experienced team of experts. A leading company, in Stewart's view, is one with a resilient balance sheet, good franchises, a strong culture and a focus on sustainability. It performs detailed research, has on-the-ground specialists and is clear on what its ideal investment looks like. Stewart's allocations to China tend to be lower than the regional benchmark. How to use the fund: Stewart' s approach has a 'quality' bias. The companies it targets tend to be more expensive than others, for good reason, so the manager takes a very long-term view when investing to allow for the power of compounding to take effect. Investors should do the same, investing over a period of ten years or more. This approach blends well with a 'value' style, which involves buying companies with depressed share prices in the expectation that they will recover.
