GEME

GEME targets the growth potential of emerging markets via a concentrated portfolio of 20-50 equity and equity-related securities. Investments include common stock, preferred stock, and ADRs from large- and mid-cap companies. The fund allocates a minimum of 40% of its assets across multiple non-US countries and 30% during unfavorable conditions. The selection process follows a value-driven approach, seeking undervalued companies trading below intrinsic value, using proprietary valuation models that combine top-down macroeconomic analysis with bottom-up company research. Holdings may include fixed-income securities, participatory notes for restricted markets, and China A-shares, capped at 10%. Additionally, it uses derivatives for currency hedging and may employ up to 15% leverage for long positions, with short positions at 20% strictly reserved for hedging. Positions are sold when they exceed intrinsic value, show deteriorating fundamentals, or increase portfolio risk.
