Portfolio Snapshots

The sub-funds of Platinum World Portfolios PLC are actively managed with a focus on long-term absolute returns.

The Investment Manager seeks out undervalued companies and builds each portfolio from the bottom up, selecting one stock at a time through quantitative analysis and detailed fundamental research. Portfolio composition is not influenced by the make-up of market indices. As a result, the Platinum World Portfolio sub-funds tend to give investors a very different exposure to that offered by commonly used market indices or index-tracking funds, whether by region, sector or in terms of the opportunities in specific companies.

Here is a snapshot of the funds’ current portfolio disposition and their top holdings.
