Ophir’s fund added to HUB24
Ophir Asset Management, an Australian small and mid-cap equities manager, has announced that its High Conviction Fund has been added to HUB24’s IDPS platform.
The fund, which was first launched in 2015, was designed to provide investors with an exposure to a portfolio of Australian companies listed outside the ASX50.
Ophir said that the High Conviction Fund was its second investment strategy following the closure of the Ophir Opportunities Fund to new investors after reaching capacity limits.
Ophir’s investment director and head of sales, Rob Saunders, said: “Investor demand for high performing, capacity-constrained small and mid-cap equity funds continues to grow.
“We’re excited to have the Ophir High Conviction Fund added to the HUB24 platform, the first Ophir fund to be made available to retail investors.”
The addition of the fund to HUB24’s platform followed the recent appointment of Perpetual as responsible entity to the fund.
