The Australian Eagle Trust (Long Short Fund) has been recognised as the winner of the prestigious “Australian Equities – Large Cap award at this year’s Financial Newswire/SQM Research Fund Manager of the Year Awards for 2022”.
Senior Portfolio Manager Alan Kwan attributes the fund’s success to the hard work and dedication of the investment team, who have spent the past 17 years refining their strategy.
The fund’s performance, particularly during volatile periods like the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrates the resilience of their ‘long’ portfolio’s focus on high-quality businesses and the dynamic nature of their short portfolio, which has contributed significantly to their outperformance.
