I speak with Mugunthan Siva from India Avenue Equities about investing in India.

India is an investment destination with massive potential. Over 1 billion people in a capitalist system where the average age is 29. These are great reasons to have exposure to India in your portfolio. A long-term investment time frame should see a handsome return.

We discuss the importance of having close contact on the ground in India, the challenges of significant shareholdings, why small and mid-sized companies deliver a chunk of the return and where Mugunthan see opportunities in the future.

Mark Wenzel speaks to Anthony Doyle from S3 Global Opportunities Fund by Firetrail. 

S3 is a sustainable fund that focuses on identifying companies whose earnings are going to grow while making a positive difference to society. S3 is not constrained by ratings agencies, preferring to research companies who will improve their ESG ratings over a 5 year time frame while increasing their earnings. 

S3 is different to most ESG funds in the market. The discussion with Anthony fleshes the differences out with examples of current holdings in the fund, the process that is followed for inclusion, why sustainable earnings are a crucial component of decision making and why S3 is a concentrated fund.

This is a great episode for investors looking for an ESG fund that focuses on sustainable, growing earnings and making positive change in society.

Talk Investment with Mark Wenzel meets with Marcus Burns from Spheria Asset Management.

The vicious sell off in small caps has presented opportunities for skilled asset managers. Marcus and I discuss the current market and where they are looking for opportunities to add alpha by following their investment process.

Good small cap managers can add real value to your portfolio with selected exposure to this nimble sector. When markets are in the doldrums, it is usually a time for bargins.
