Manager Overview:
Hamilton12 is a Brisbane-based investment manager established in 2017. It develops systematic, rules-based strategies with a focus on after-tax outcomes, fee minimisation and transparency. Co-founders Dr Jason Hall (CIO) and Richard McDougall (Managing Director) bring experience from academia, investment banks and wealth management. |
Fund/Strategy Overview:
The Fund seeks after-tax outperformance of the S&P/ASX 200 Franking Credit Adjusted Daily Total Return Index (Superannuation) and a higher gross dividend yield than the benchmark. It employs a rules-based process that tilts towards franked dividend payers while maintaining sector diversification. The investment universe is the ASX All Ordinaries, with rebalancing six times per year and position sizing influenced by market capitalisation and liquidity. Performance is reported inclusive of franking credits. |
