The sub-fund is an equity fund. The investment objective of the sub-fund is to achieve long-term capital growth by investing in shares and other equity securities. Two thirds of these shares and equity securities are investments in carefully chosen small- and mid-cap companies that either (i) have their registered office in Switzerland (ii) have their registered office outside of Switzerland but carry out the majority of their economic activity Switzerland or (iii) are holding companies that mainly hold investments in companies whose registered office is in Switzerland and which are mainly managed by the owners. The universe for owner-managed companies is determined as follows: - One or more shareholders have significant shareholdings (at least 20%) and have a decisive influence on the corporate policy. - Listed on a recognised stock market or, in the case of an initial public offering, the company has applied for listing on the relevant exchange.
