Management
Brenda Reed
 
The Standard Bank Offshore Global Focus Fund is a feeder fund, which invests directly into the Fidelity Fund Global Focus Fund. The Standard Bank Offshore Global Focus Fund is managed by Standard Bank Unit Trusts Jersey Limited, the Management Company, which is a subsidiary of Standard Bank Offshore Group and ultimately Stanbic.
 
Focus and Objective
The Fund aims to provide long-term capital growth from a portfolio of global equities. The fund invests in a limited number of companies and is therefore much more concentrated than the benchmark MSCI World Index. The fund is not subject to any limitations and will not attempt to mirror benchmark sector and country weights. In this respect, resultant exposures will be a residual of stock selection and are adjusted in order to add incremental value to returns derived primarily from individual stocks. Risk is controlled through holding a well-diversified selection of thoroughly researched companies.

The fund manager prefers companies with a competitive advantage, usually achieved through pricing power or being a low cost producer, as they are likely to yield higher returns on invested capital and free cash flow. Over time this should lead to higher growth rates and dividends, or share buy backs. The fund is style neutral, but may have a bias toward growth or value stocks where the fund manager identifies opportunities to exploit the potential relative outperformance of a particular market segment.
