RWC launches new fund



Active investment manager RWC has announced the launch of the RWC Global Horizon Fund, based on the presence of recently-recruited specialist Louise Keeling.
The company said Keeling had been recruited as a partner in April to establish a long-only Global Equity team, having previously worked with Jeremy Hosking at Marathon Asset Management.
RWC said it expected to launch the new product this month, with the long-only unconstrained global equities fund being launched as a Luxembourg UCITS Fund to sit alongside the $2.5 billion RWC already manages across its UCITS Funds.
Keeling said that in launching the fund, RWC was taking an approach which allowed it to make contrarian investments which it believed would create outsized returns for investors.
