BRIC Fund
Capitalise on the
emerging markets of Brazil , Russia , India and China (BRIC) with this highly
focused fund from HSBC
The Fund manager pursues a unique approach to dealing with some of the
challenges of emerging markets by using active quantitative techniques
to outperform the MSCI BRIC Index in relative terms through a
combination of country allocation, stock selection and
exposure
management.
BRIC country allocation depends on SINOPIA's proprietary valuation model
signals with an allocation of 10% minimum, 50% maximum per country.
Stock valuation is based on SINOPIA's earnings momentum scoring method
with the
“active portfolio” of overweight/underweight positions
represent a maximum of 20%. The portfolio is expected to contain a high
number of stocks (70-120 holdings with around 100 on average) with a
particular emphasis given to maximising liquidity and minimising trading
costs.
