Aberdeen Frontier Markets - Update research from QuotedData
27(th) March 2018
No closet-tracker
In a major shift in how its structured, Aberdeen Frontier
Markets (AFMC) last year moved from investing indirectly via funds
to investing directly into shares of listed companies. This was
mostly completed by the end of June 2017. AFMC has underperformed
the MSCI Frontier Markets Index by some margin and this, in turn,
has led to a widening discount. However, AFMC is not and does not
want to be seen as a closet index tracker. The manager believes its
focus on quality will be rewarded in the long run. This report
looks at the MSCI Frontier Markets Index and why it isn't the
perfect tool for analysing AFMC's performance. It also explains how
the manager's investment approach leads it to construct a portfolio
that is very different from the index.
