Please note the name of the Antipodes Asia Income Fund changed from the Premium Asia Income Fund on 22 April 2024.

Antipodes Asia Income Fund

The Antipodes Asia Income Fund is managed using a disciplined value-oriented approach supported by intensive, on-the-ground bottom-up fundamental research resulting in a concentrated portfolio of fixed interest securities issued by companies in Asia and the Middle East, which, in the view of the investment manager, are undervalued, on either an absolute or a relative basis, have the potential to generate regular income and have the potential for some capital appreciation.

This product is intended for use as a minor or satellite portfolio allocation for a consumer who is seeking capital growth and has a medium or high risk and return profile for that portion of their investment portfolio. It is likely to be consistent with the financial situation and needs of a consumer with a minimum 3-to-5-year investment timeframe and who is unlikely to need to withdraw their money on less than one week’s notice.
