> tell me more >The Tyndall World Equities Fund (formerly ‘SIM World Equities Trust’) is structured with two global growth managers, two global value managers and one global emerging markets manager. These managers have long-term track records and a demonstrated ability to consistently perform throughout the investment cycle and aim to deliver benchmark outperformance.
Fund objective
The objective of the Fund is to outperform the MSCI World ex-Australia Index in Australian dollars by at least 3% per annum over rolling three year periods.
Investment strategy
The investment strategy for the Fund is under-pinned by a philosophy of bottom-up stock picking. In order to achieve the high performance outcomes in a risk controlled manner, the strategy is to outsource the stock picking to a range of exceptional international investment managers. Although these managers follow their own particular investment strategies, they are blended in such a way as to target superior active and risk-adjusted returns. Tyndall retains management of the overall portfolio and also manages a derivatives overlay to ensure a balance of return and risk.
