"The MGF Asian Small Cap Equity Fund, the master fund for the MS-ASIAN SM, utilises this investment strategy to identify potential 'hidden gems' – which have earnings growth potential, strong pricing power, solid management teams and niche market positions – and purchase them before the broader market recognises their potential. The master fund's exposure to multiple Asian markets makes it an effective diversification tool in the face of current volatility in the Thai market and the potential for global and political uncertainties to continue affecting the market in the short run."
The uniqueness of the MS-ASIAN SM's investment approach and its track record of attractive returns make it a flagship fund for Manulife. The MS-ASIAN SM is consistently on our distributors' and investors' investment short lists.
