"Vergent's FEM strategy achieved strong performance from Egypt and Vietnam in Q3 2025, taking profits in select positions and reducing exposure to Indonesia, while remaining overall constructive on opportunities in Central Eastern Europe and the Middle East."
Executive Summary
In the FEM Q3 2025 Manager Letter, Vergent outlines its regional contributors and detractors, noting that Egypt, Vietnam, and Poland drove performance, while Indonesia, Lithuania, and the Philippines detracted. Key portfolio modifications included exiting Ho Chi Minh City Development Bank (taking profits) and Hikma Pharmaceuticals (due to US policy risks), alongside reducing overall exposure to Indonesia. The manager remains constructive on long-term opportunities in Central Eastern Europe and the Middle East, leveraging a diversified portfolio consisting of companies across 20 countries and 16 GICS industry groups.
