Investor suitability

The Funds are not suited to Investors who:

1. Expect returns to mirror or better an index at all times. Platinum's investment process pays no heed to recognised benchmarks, such as MSCI Inc.
   
2. Expect to make significant short‐term gains. The minimum suggested time horizon for each Fund is five or more years.
   
3. Cannot tolerate that there may be substantial fluctuations in the value of their investment. Equity markets are volatile and fluctuations will occur in the value of your investment in the Funds.

About the Fund

A truly diversified portfolio of companies from around the world and across industry sectors, the fund offers investors exposure to undervalued businesses in both developed and emerging markets.

Investment objective

To provide capital growth over the long-term by investing in undervalued companies from around the world.

Investment Strategy

The Platinum International Fund primarily invests in listed securities. The portfolio will ideally consist of 70 to 140 securities that Platinum believes to be undervalued by the market. Cash may be held when undervalued securities cannot be found. However, the portfolio typically has 50% or more net equity exposure. Platinum may short-sell securities that it considers overvalued.

Why invest with Platinum?

Platinum is one of Australia's leading investment managers in international equities.

Platinum has an independent style of investment management driven by a thematic stock picking approach. The composition of a Fund's assets is determined largely by the availability of companies regarded as undervalued by Platinum rather than by macro economic modelling (referred to as top down asset allocation) or by reference to global share index weightings (referred to as benchmarking).

Platinum's investment strategy is applied with the aim of achieving absolute returns for Investors. This is our central endeavour. It is complemented by monthly and quarterly communications to keep Investors abreast of our perspective and portfolio positioning.

The Funds can be used as standalone investment options for international exposure or may be used to complement the investment styles of other managers.
