Finding Opportunities in Unlikely PlacesIf you share our passion for unloved bargains and have a long-term focus, Forager could be the right investment for you.
As the Forager name suggests, our style of investing involves scouring the world looking for undiscovered opportunities. In assessing these opportunities, we find both asset backing and earnings power are useful valuation tools, depending on the type of business we are investing in.
So where are they looking? The investment expertise at Forager lies in understanding businesses and investor behaviour, spotting patterns and trends that are unique but can be applied across markets and sectors.
Opportunistic in our approach – we invest where we see the greatest value and potential for return in the market.
