| Fund Overview | The investment team looks for industrial businesses that are simple to understand; they generally avoid large caps, pure mining, biotech and start-ups. They also look for: - Access to management; - Businesses with a competitive edge; - Profitable companies with good margins, organic growth prospects, strong market position and a track record of healthy dividend growth; - Sectors with structural advantage and barriers to entry; - 15% p.a. pre-tax compound return on each holding; and - A history of stable and predictable cash flows that DS Capital can understand and value. |
| Manager Comments | The Fund's capacity to achieve superior risk-adjusted returns whilst avoiding the market's downside volatility is highlighted by the following statistics (since inception): Sharpe ratio of 1.15 vs the Index's 0.53, Sortino ratio of 1.67 vs the Index's 0.61, and down-capture ratio of 45.22%. The Fund's down-capture ratio indicates that, on average, the Fund has fallen less than half as much as the market during the market's negative months. |
