Investment policy

The Fund aims to maximize capital with focus on companies subject to extraordinary/special situations such as mergers, acquisitions and restructuring with the aim to take advantage of such events. This objective will be reached by investing mainly intransferable securities, particularly equities and bonds, money market instruments and derivatives (such as futures and options, Contracts for Difference or Equity Swaps), in order to create long and short exposure with the aim of exploiting potential opportunities. If the Fund invests in Swaps on Indexes, the index composition will be public and disciplined by appropriate Index Rules publicly available and in accordance with the provisions of the Law. The Fund will not invest in derivatives where the counterparties have any discretion on the composition or management of the Fund’s investment portfolio or on the underlying of the financial derivative instruments. The Fund may hold liquid assets, including cash, bank deposits, money market instruments or units of Undertakings for Collective Investments in Transferable Securities (UCITS) and/or other Undertakings for Collective Investments (UCIs) that have a policy of investing mainly in liquidity strategies on a residual basis (less than 50% of its net assets). The Fund may invest up to 100% of its net assets in various issues (minimum 6) of securities and money market financial instruments, issued or guaranteed by a Member State of the European Union, by its public territorial authorities, by a Member state of the OECD, by international public institutions to which one or more EU Member States belong. The Fund will invest mainly in developed markets. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in units of other UCITS or other UCIs. The Fund may use financial techniques and instruments in order to promote efficient portfolio management. The investor can buy or sell shares of the Fund on a weekly basis, each Friday, or next full banking.

Annual chart

Leadersel Event-Driven's performance in May was primarily attributable to the strong performance of special situations, a month in which risk arbitrage and relative value positions, while generally showing moderate movements, were impacted by short-term market dynamics that reduced their contribution.

Manager's comment of the month

In detail, in risk arbitrage, on the European front, highlights included the finalization of the conversion of Telecom savings shares into ordinary shares, a transaction that allowed for significant tax advantages on the cash adjustment, and the formalization of the offer for Recordati by CVC, the pharmaceutical company's reference shareholder. In the US portfolio, attention was focused on the acquisition of Allied Gold Corp by China's Zijin Gold, still awaiting the necessary approvals, complicated by the current unrest in Mali.

Turning to special situations, Technoprobe made significant contributions, following the presentation of highly encouraging results, accompanied by rumors regarding the possible addition of an industrial partner to the Crippa family, the current controlling shareholder, and its investment portfolio in companies exposed to the renewable energy sector. Also noteworthy is Eni's retracement, amid hopes for an imminent reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

Finally, in relative value, despite the strong performance of the European banks' portfolio, thanks primarily to Deutsche Bank and Santander, the discount on Danieli savings shares compared to ordinary shares widened significantly, likely driven by rebalancing at the end of the month. Regarding asset allocation, the risk arbitrage component was reduced due to the completion of the conversion of Telecom savings shares into ordinary shares, in an operating environment that nevertheless allowed exposure to remain around 170% of the fund's assets.
