FAQs

Why should I invest with Platinum?

Platinum is one of Australia’s leading investment managers in international equities.
Platinum has an independent style of investment management driven by a thematic stock picking approach. The composition of a Fund’s assets is determined largely by the availability of companies regarded as undervalued by Platinum rather than by macro-economic modelling (referred to as top-down asset allocation) or by reference to global share index weightings (referred to as benchmarking).
Platinum’s investment strategy is applied with the aim of achieving absolute returns for Investors over the long-term. This is our central endeavour. It is complemented by monthly and quarterly communications to keep Investors abreast of our perspective and portfolio positioning.
