Firm expands access to long-standing U.S.-based international strategy, bringing disciplined, value-driven investing to a broader global audience through the Smead Global ex-US Value UCITS Fund

Smead Capital Management, a Phoenix-based investment management firm and a leader in value investing, today announced the launch of the Smead Global ex-US Value UCITS Fund designed to provide global investors with access to a product modeled after the firm’s long-standing Smead International Value Strategy.

The Smead Global ex-US Value UCITS Fund is domiciled in Luxembourg. Investors can access the fund through Smead Capital Management’s website and it is available to professional and qualified investors through the fund’s transfer agent.

The strategy that the Smead Global ex-US Value UCITS Fund is modeled after, the Smead International Value Strategy, has been a core contributor to Smead Capital Management’s outstanding performance for over a decade. Like all Smead products, the Global ex-US Value UCITS Fund will be built on Smead’s eight investment criteria and a disciplined, contrarian, value approach.

“Many investors around the world believe non-US companies cannot produce attractive long-term investment returns. We disagree and want our investors to take advantage of this in a focused manner,” said Smead Capital Management CEO and Portfolio Manager Cole Smead. “The goal isn’t to solve the world’s problems. Our investors use this discipline to find public companies in places like Canada, Italy, Austria and others that produce strong returns on capital through long-term ownership that we believe we don’t have to overpay for.”

As US equity markets become increasingly concentrated in a small number of mega-cap names, there has been a growing demand for international diversification. The Smead Global ex-US Value UCITS Fund addresses this need and provides a long-term, low-turnover discipline focused on businesses generating durable returns on capital.

The launch of the fund reflects a measured, natural evolution for the firm, which launched the Smead US Value UCITS Fund in 2013. Since its inception, Smead Capital Management has grown to $5.46 billion in AUM.

The ISIN number is LU3392892710. The Bloomberg ticker is SMVXUIU LX.
