Warrakirri Global Emerging Markets Fund

Warakirri Asset Management

Warakirri Asset Management, in partnership with Northcape Capital as manager, has launched a new global emerging markets fund which invests in a concentrated portfolio of between 20 to 40 companies.

Warakirri signed a partnership deal earlier in April to act as exclusive retail distributor for Northcape's investment capabilities. Northcape's investment approach is to invest in resilient businesses with a clear opportunity for growth over the longer term. Northcape's investment team conduct around 400 research meetings per year to identify potential stock candidates.

Warakirri is also opening three of its wholesale funds - the Warakirri Ethical Australian Equities Fund, the Warakirri Concentrated Australian Equity Fund and the Warakirri Ethical Global Equities Fund - to retail investors.

"We are excited to launch these retail funds and to distribute Northcape's equity capabilities to the non-institutional market. Enabling access to these funds provides advisers and their clients with access to a quality equities manager with an impressive track record of delivering resilient, solid returns across all of their strategies," said Warakirri's Managing Director, Mr. McKay.

Investors can invest in these funds with a minimum investment of $25,000.
