Randall Dishmon, Senior Portfolio Manager, Global Equities
Everyone that has met me over the past 20 years I’ve been in the financial industry knows what I think of labels when it comes to investing. Labels are your enemy, and I strongly recommend you forget as many of them as possible.
Growth, value, core, small, large, balanced… we’re in the business of making money with money. You do that by buying great companies trading at prices less than they are worth. That’s it. Call it anything you want as long as you get the job done.

Randall Dishmon shares his three simple rules for investing in stocks.
Cyclical change separates the world into ‘Growth’ and ‘Value’ and those things do mean revert. However, structural change? That separates the world into winners and losers, and the losers usually don’t mean revert…they go bankrupt
ESG is not a separate process – it is inherent in what good investing is all about.
E-commerce has been like a massive wave that has washed over much of the traditional retail footprint in the US and Europe. Globally, e-commerce retail sales are projected to hit $6.5 trillion in 2024.
To beat the market, you can’t BE the market. You must believe something different and you have to be right.
We make predications on great companies of the future, not the future of the market.
What lies at the heart of our process is a focus on the only three questions that we believe matter.
As with everything we do, our approach to Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) is independent and forward-looking.
We know it’s important you trust that the people appointed to manage your money are experienced, reliable and consistent.
The value of investments and any income will fluctuate (this may partly be the result of exchange rate fluctuations) and investors may not get back the full amount invested.
As the fund has a concentrated number of holdings, investors should be prepared to accept higher risks.
The Fund may use Stock Connect to access China A Shares traded in mainland China. This may result in additional liquidity risk and operational risks including settlement and default risks, regulatory risk and system failure risk.
Although the Fund invests mainly in established markets, it can invest in emerging and developing markets, where there is potential for a decrease in market liquidity, which may mean that it is not easy to buy or sell securities. There may also be difficulties in dealing and settlement, and custody problems could arise.
The fund may use derivatives (complex instruments) in an attempt to reduce the overall risk of its investments, reduce the costs of investing and/or generate additional capital or income, although this may not be achieved. The use of such complex instruments may result in greater fluctuations of the value of the fund. The Manager, however, will ensure that the use of derivatives within the fund does not materially alter the overall risk profile of the fund.
Where individuals or the business have expressed opinions, they are based on current market conditions, they may differ from those of other investment professionals and are subject to change without notice.
