The Ucits-compliant GAM Star Emerging Equity Fund is a daily dealing, long-only fund that will be actively managed by Tim Love and Joaquim Nogueira. It was launched on 19 March.
The two co-managers will invest across a diversified portfolio of between 100 and 150 stocks, chosen through a fundamental, valuation-driven approach.
The fund itself will be authorised for sale in Ireland and Luxembourg as well as the UK, with further jurisdictions to be added in the next few weeks.
