The Sterling Fund is a focused listed equities fund that invests in small, medium and large companies that typically exhibit:
Strong, established market positions
Long-tenured management who are often significant shareholders
Low capital-intensive business models
The goal is to deliver strong risk-adjusted investment returns that are superior to those commonly available to investors.
The Fund is for absolute return-minded investors, who have a tolerance for price volatility and a time horizon of at least five years.
The Fund is intended to complement investor portfolios, given its broad opportunity set and its focused portfolio (10 to 20 holdings) of high-quality equity investments.
