Smallco Investment (ASC0001AU) Report & Performance

What is the Smallco Investment fund?

Smallco aims to provide good performance in SIF through actively looking for high quality, smaller companies whose share price is significantly less than what Smallco considers to be the true underlying value of the shares. Smallco manages SIF with a “Growth at a Reasonable Price” bias employing a bottom up approach with a strong focus on earnings direction and risks.

  • Strong believers that earnings are the key driver of share prices and that more accurate forecasting of earnings will drive greater and more consistent outperformance.
  • Focus is placed on identifying stocks through fundamental analysis which are likely to exceed consensus earnings expectations or stocks which are out of favour and we are confident will at least meet earnings expectations.
  • Smallco actively looks for high quality companies whose current share price is significantly less than what it considers to be the true underlying value of the shares.
  • mallco invests mostly in smaller Australian listed companies, but may invest up to 20% of the fund in larger Australian listed companies and some cash. The manager classifies a smaller Australian listed company as a company outside the S&P/ASX 100 Index at the time the fund makes its initial investment.

Comments from SMSF Mates

Kind words from Aussies managing
their own self funded futures

  • SMSF Mate is a unique website because it has ideas about how to approach SMSFs, insurance and other financial topics that come straight from first hand experience. It's much more useful than what you find on all the other financial websites that just offer generic info that you could easily get on the ATO's website. It's also nice to know there's no financial incentive behind the information, it's legitimately there to help people understand self-managed super funds and how to get the most out of them, not to get an affiliate commission from a broker or other financial services provider. The investment product information is also incredibly useful, I've never seen this kind of functionality on any other website that let's you look at such a wide range of products, sort by what info is most interesting or important to you, and subscribe to updates for different funds and financial products all in one place. Definitely worth checking out if you own or are considering an SMSF!
