"EQUAM Global Value Fund navigated macro-driven tariff volatility in H1 2025 to return 7.1%, actively putting cash to work in highly discounted European SMID caps while seeing multiple portfolio companies unlock value through corporate actions."
Executive Summary
EQUAM Global Value Fund returned 7.1% during the first half of 2025, slightly underperforming its European peers. The portfolio was impacted by volatility surrounding US tariff announcements, which the managers viewed as an opportunity to purchase undervalued companies. Notable portfolio activities include a new position in Kinepolis and multiple corporate catalyst events (takeovers, strategic reviews, asset sales) across holdings like Dalata, Marlowe, Elecnor, Millenium, and Norma. The managers emphasize that the fund's upside potential is currently at historical highs of around 100%, driven by deep market discounts in the SMID value segment.
