Pleased to meet you
ICE Investors is a boutique fund manager based in Melbourne, Australia specialising in franchise style investing in Australian Equities. The ICE Investors team has successfully managed the ICE Fund in accordance with this franchise style since 2006.
Our franchise style investment process
Our active management approach is founded on our franchise style approach to investment which has been successfully been used by the team for more than a decade. It combines in depth valuation analysis with a forensic approach to company research, market fundamentals and insight. The way to identify franchises is to look for assets that are difficult to replicate and products or services that are sticky. Simply put, we like to buy great sustainable companies at attractive prices.
In addition, we are firm believers in co-investment, demonstrated by our significant investment in our own funds. Another reason we believe our structure is ideal is that we have made the decision to cap our Funds Under Management at modest levels, to ensure that the ICE Fund retains greater flexibility to generate strong investment returns across varying market conditions.
Research capability
In order to identify the best opportunities for our clients, we undertake a broad fundamental research program which incorporates an extensive company visitation schedule. With an experienced team of investment professionals, our approach to analysing companies is designed to ensure no stone remains unturned.
