Who is the fund manager?

Tony Bell – Having started out as an accountant, Tony moved to Southern Life Asset Management and soon became assistant General Manager of Investments. His move to Syfrets Managed Assets created the opportunity for Tony to become Chief Investment Officer at Nedcor Investment Bank. As CIO of PeregrineQuant and more recently Vunani Fund Managers Tony brings a wealth of experience especially in running the overall asset allocation of the fund. His MBA thesis “Portfolio Management – an Alternative Approach” which was awarded with distinction reflects Tony’s interest in understanding how the macro environment affects markets and asset class returns.

How does the manager select its stock?

There are several factors that need to be considered before investing in a stock, but the primary reason why the stocks are selected is based on earnings growth vectors. The fund manager will pick a stock if its future change in earnings growth is an attractive investment. Asset allocation and stock selection vary according to the manager’s macroeconomic view and the attractiveness of each asset class.

Is the fund always fully invested?

No. The benefit of a flexible fund is that the fund manager does not have to invest 100% of the fund in equity if the manager feels other asset classes are more suitable.
