Description Platinum is one of Australia's leading investment managers in international shares.
Platinum Asset Management is a specialist international equity manager that uses a thematic stock-picking approach that concentrates on identifying out-of-favour stocks. They are an Australian based fund manager that specialises in international equities.

Platinum currently manages in excess of A$21.0 billion with more than 20% of this from investors in New Zealand, Europe, America and Asia.

Platinum's investment methodology is applied with the aim of achieving absolute returns for investors. Our focus is on managing clients' money rather than gathering funds under management.

For investors seeking a general exposure to international shares, the Platinum International Fund reflects the manager's current, most favoured geographic and industry exposure. Those investors who wish to tailor their portfolios more specifically might consider their geographic and industry specific funds.

Key Elements of Platinum's style:
  • Utilises a bottom-up, stock selection methodology.
  • Seeks absolute returns and not returns relative to any index.
  • Utilises short selling of shares and indices (depending on mandate).
  • When undervalued stocks cannot be found, funds may be invested in cash.
  • Actively manages currency.
