Fleetwood man's investment house in Asian move
Seneca Investment Managers has added Samarang to its Global Income and Growth Trust. Tom Delic, fund manager, Seneca Investment Managers said: “We have recently added Samarang Asian Prosperity Fund, a small cap pan-Asian fund run by Greg Fisher, to the portfolio.
“The manager uses traditional value investing techniques applied to the very small cap regions of the Asian markets, where companies with no analyst coverage and very little buy-side interest can be found.
