TM Oberon UK Smaller Companies Fund

Overview

TM Oberon UK Smaller Companies Fund is a UK-based mutual fund focusing on small-cap and AIM-listed companies. The fund aims to achieve long-term growth over a rolling period of at least five years through a combination of capital gains and income generation, with all fees and expenses accounted for. It follows a bottom-up investment approach, focusing on small-cap and AIM-listed UK companies. This approach is built on four core principles: Three Pillars of Growth, Value-Driven Philosophy, Manager Alignment, and Focus on Distressed Growth Sectors. These principles are designed to deliver alpha by identifying unique opportunities within the small-cap market segment that align with the Fund’s strategy and growth focus. The Fund’s primary objective is to generate long-term capital growth, targeting a period of at least five years. To achieve this, the Fund invests at least 75% of its assets in shares of smaller UK companies, which are either domiciled, incorporated, or significantly exposed to the UK market. Within this allocation, the Fund focuses on the lowest 10% of UK-listed companies by market capitalization, reviewed on a quarterly basis. The Fund seeks companies that demonstrate improving growth in revenues or profits and appear undervalued. This may include businesses undergoing strategic changes, such as new financing, acquisitions, or restructuring, as well as those experiencing management changes or shifts in business strategy. Additionally, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in companies with market capitalizations above the bottom 10% of UK-listed firms, companies in other geographic markets, such as Europe and the USA, collective investment vehicles, including those managed by the ACD or Investment Manager, warrants, cash, and cash-equivalents. This flexible approach allows the Fund to capture a diverse range of opportunities across small and micro-cap companies, with the potential for growth-driven returns.
