Equity Alpha Plus
Overview
The Paradice Equity Alpha Plus Fund primarily invests in securities that are listed on the Australian, and New Zealand stock exchanges (or soon to be listed) – long and short – that are generally chosen from the S&P/ASX 200 Index.
The Fund may also invest in international securities (i.e. non-Australian). The Fund’s exposure to international securities will not exceed 20% of the Fund’s market value. The Fund’s long/short investment style is designed to enhance returns and manage downside risks.
The Fund may also invest in exchange traded derivatives to manage risk and cash or cash equivalents.
Objective
The Paradice Equity Alpha Plus Fund aims to outperform the S&P/ASX 200 Total Return Index (after fees and before taxes) over the long term.
