Vertium Equity Income Fund - Managed Fund

Fund Objective
The Fund aims to achieve superior outcomes across three investment objectives: 1. Greater income than the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index (after fees) yearly 2. Lower absolute risk* than the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index yearly 3. Greater total return than the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index (after fees) over rolling five-year periods.
Fund Strategy
Vertium's investment process is based on using bottom-up fundamental analysis to determine the value of companies. The cornerstone of Vertium's investment philosophy is loss avoidance, with the team's research process placing an enormous amount of effort in mitigating downside risks by attempting to pay less than the fundamental value of a security (margin of safety). Vertium will wait patiently and only buy stocks when the margin of safety is expected to be sufficient and sell stocks when the margin of safety disappears.
