    About this Fund

    The Pie Australasian Dividend Growth Fund seeks to provide investors with a regular dividend payment stream or reinvestment and long term capital growth. It does this by investing predominantly in a concentrated portfolio of hand-picked Australasian smaller and medium companies that pay a dividend or produce cash-flow available for future distributions and whose earnings growth potential we do not consider fully realised by the market. The Pie Australasian Dividend Growth Fund may also invest in other types of financial products such as cash, unlisted equities as well as Large Companies.
