Andrew Hall, Fund ManagerAs Ben Graham described in ‘The Intelligent Investor’, the market is mostly efficient at the pricing of securities but on occasion ‘Mr Market’ is an investor prone to erratic swings of pessimism and optimism. Our philosophy is designed to allow us to profit from the rare opportunities that ‘Mr Market’ throws up, to identify sound businesses that are not priced as such.
We focus on sustainable, long-term winners that are mispriced or underappreciated by the market.
Global investing enables you to access investment opportunities that are not present domestically. Spreading your investments across geographies also benefits diversification, as volatility in one market is likely not affecting other markets. Thus, by investing globally you increase the potential for returns while reducing risk at the same time.
You can invest in the global stock market by investing in actively managed mutual funds or exchange traded funds (ETFs). Invesco offers a broad range of actively managed funds and ETFs.
We identify stocks with valuations that have not been reflected by the market but future prospects may be recognised by it later. We have no preconceived bias towards stocks, sectors or countries, rather we look for the best investments at any point in time.
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. 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. 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. 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.
