Montgomery Partnership Announcement

September 1, 2022

Introducing our partnership with Montgomery Investment Management

Australian Eagle Asset Management (Australian Eagle) is pleased to announce a new strategic partnership with Montgomery Investment Management Limited (Montgomery), a leading Australian boutique investment firm.

Starting in September 2022, Sean Sequeira, Alan Kwan, and the Australian Eagle investment team will join Montgomery under a sub-investment manager partnership agreement to manage Montgomery’s Australian domestic large-cap equities portfolios, which are offered to retail clients through The Montgomery Fund and to wholesale clients through The Montgomery [Private] Fund.

With a 19-year track record, Australian Eagle has consistently outperformed the S&P ASX-100 Accumulation Index by investing in a high-conviction, quality-focused portfolio of approximately 25 to 35 stocks.

Both funds apply Australian Eagle’s highly disciplined and fact-based investment process to identify high quality Australian and New Zealand listed companies with the potential to deliver superior long-term outcomes.

This partnership will see the Australian Eagle team join Montgomery in Sydney as the managers of The Montgomery Fund and co-portfolio managers of The Montgomery [Private] Fund, working alongside Montgomery’s founder, Roger Montgomery.

Montgomery is also an exclusive distribution partner of our Australian Eagle Trust (Long Short Fund), which is available for wholesale and retail investors.

Roger Montgomery commented, “We look forward to working closely with Sean, Alan and the whole Australian Eagle team, to focus on delivering strong returns to our clients. The Australian Eagle team has a strong track record of outperforming the market by following a quality- and valuation-focused investment approach that is closely aligned with our own. However, it is the unique addition into the process of their ‘Growth Delta’ or change narrative that has improved the timing of returns. Historically, this product has only been available to wholesale investors.”

Sean Sequeira added, “We’re a great fit with Montgomery and are delighted to be entering into our partnership. Montgomery enjoys deep investor and industry relationships, expertise in managing funds which are available to retail investors and a trusted brand that has been earned through its long-term focus on meeting clients’ needs.”
