SAN DIEGO, July 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Brandes Investment Partners (Asia) Pte Ltd ("Brandes Asia"), part of the Brandes group of companies that includes Brandes Investment Partners L.P. ("Brandes"), today announced the launch of the Brandes Global Value Fund in Australia. A boutique independent investment management firm committed to value investing, Brandes is proud to launch this new fund which provides Australian institutional and wholesale investors an opportunity to access Brandes' 50+ years of experience navigating various global market conditions while applying its tried and tested value investing approach.
The fund models the investment philosophy of Brandes' Global Equity strategy which has a track record going back to 1977 and will invest in a diverse mix of global equity securities spanning multiple regions and sectors.
"Brandes is well known to institutional investors around the world and in Australia as a consistent value investor. We are very excited to be launching the Brandes Global Value Fund to serve the Australian wealth channel," said Oliver Murray, CEO of Brandes. "Given the current geopolitical uncertainty and market volatility, we think that this is a particularly good time for investors in Australia to consider a manager with a track record of investing in global markets and through many challenging market events."
Managed by the firm's Global Large-Cap Investment Committee, the fund will seek to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in the equity securities of both U.S. and non-U.S. issuers by applying the Brandes investment approach of identifying undervalued companies through its independent research-driven fundamental valuation of those businesses.
"Brandes is delighted to bring an investment strategy with a long term track record to Australia's wealth channel," said Anita Krishnamoorthy, CEO for Brandes Asia. "The past year has been a stark reminder that reversals in markets exist. With the renewed interest in diversifying portfolios and going back to the basics of price disciplined stock picking, we believe this is a sound time to introduce a differentiated investment solution for Australian investors."
