Executive Summary
Fortress Fund Managers closed out 2025 at new all-time highs across its funds. The flagship Caribbean Growth Fund rose 2.3% in Q4, bringing its 1-year return to 13.3%, driven by non-U.S. global equities despite continued weakness in local Caribbean shares. High-quality bonds benefited from two Federal Reserve interest rate cuts totaling 0.5%. The fund selectively adjusted its equity holdings by switching from a long-held position in Johnson & Johnson to Merck. Despite potential headwinds from geopolitical tensions and upcoming U.S. midterm elections, the managers remain constructive on the global value landscape, particularly in overlooked sectors like healthcare and consumer staples.
