Mirabaud Launches New Equity Fund

Swiss asset manager Mirabaud has launched a global equity fund for new manager Kirill Pyshkin.

Swiss asset manager Mirabaud has launched a global equity fund for new manager Kirill Pyshkin.

Pyshkin joined from Aviva Investors in February.

The Mirabaud Global Equity High Income Fund has assets in excess of $25 million following a six-month incubation period, and will be a sub fund of the Mirabaud Luxembourg Sicav. It aims to deliver dividends at least 25 per cent higher than that available on the broad equity market and growing above inflation.

“Our investment philosophy is that of value investors with focus on income; so we buy companies with higher than average and sustainably growing dividends that are attractively valued,” said Pyshkin.

“However, we focus on companies that fall under our castle, moat and goldmine (CMG) definition – that is, companies that are financially strong, well-managed and operating in attractive industries with defendable business models.”

Anu Narula - head of the global equities -  is to co-manage the fund. The fund is registered for sale in France, Ireland, Italy, Spain, Switzerland and the UK.
