Provides broad-based exposure to Asian ex-Japan equities, including off-benchmark holdings as well as small and mid-cap companies. No market-cap constraints and no sector restrictions, allowing for high-conviction capital allocation across Asia ex-Japan, including Australia and New Zealand.
Schroders is a leading global asset manager operating from over 30 locations worldwide and managing over EUR 700 billion in assets under management across its platform. Led by Toby Hudson, Head of Asia ex-Japan Equity Investments with nearly three decades of investing experience, supported by more than 10 Asia Pacific ex-Japan fund managers averaging 18 years at Schroders and over 45 regional analysts.
Aims to provide capital growth in excess of the MSCI AC Asia ex-Japan index (net of fees) over a three year period by investing in Asian equities excluding Japan. Displays a clear and consistent track record of outperformance both amongst peers and against the benchmark.
The Fund adopts a go-anywhere approach, investing across off-benchmark countries and lesser-known small and mid-cap companies wherever opportunities are identified. Research focuses on identifying companies with robust business models, good corporate governance, and strong management teams to drive shareholder return. Stock selection is driven by a Shareholder Return Classification framework that categorises companies by their return on capital profile, overweighting "Superior" (return on invested capital exceeds cost of capital, stable or rising) and "Positive Transition" companies while avoiding "Inferior" and "Negative Transition" stocks. Final portfolio weight combines this classification with conviction level driven by stock grades and valuation alongside risk management inputs.
Endowus offers retail share class with 100% trailer fee rebated back to Endowus investors to achieve lower cost of access.
Investors seeking for a broad-based growth exposure into Asia or looking to further diversify their Asian investment portfolio can consider the Fund as a satellite allocation to complement other existing equity funds. Investors should remain mindful that the Fund is a regional equity strategy and will likely experience periods of heightened volatility and make sure their portfolio remains geographically diversified in most cases. The Fund has a bias toward growth-oriented stocks, while this procyclical style is designed to capture capital appreciation during economic expansions, it often carries higher valuations and can be sensitive to rising interest rates, which may lead to periods of underperformance during market rotations.
