Hyperion Global Growth Companies Fund (Managed Fund) six-month anniversary

Today marks the six-month anniversary of the listing date (22 March 2021) of the Hyperion Global Growth Companies Fund (Managed Fund) (ASX:HYGG).

On behalf of the Hyperion team, we want to thank you for your support for what has been a fantastic start for HYGG. The fund has shown considerable traction, generating significant returns for investors in this period and became the first Australian exchange-traded product on the ASX to reach $200 million of assets in the first three months of listing.

We thought it also an opportune time to provide you with a summary of some of the high-level investor benefits and key facts about HYGG consistent with Hyperion’s mission to protect and grow your capital sustainably over the long term.

Generating investor returns

  • Alpha focused: We are pleased that the fund’s performance (after fees) for the three months to 31 August 2021 was 17.1% (1) against a benchmark return of 12.2%. We are even more proud of the Hyperion Global Growth Companies Fund (Managed Fund) track record since its inception (June 2014) with performance (after fees) of 24.1% p.a. (1), excess performance above the benchmark of 9.1% p.a.
  • Tight on-market spreads: A key part of your investment in HYGG is being able to minimise transaction costs to reduce your entry price. In this regard, we are pleased that the average total bid-ask spread of HYGG of 0.27% (2), is one of the tightest spreads of any global equity active ETF on the ASX and compares to the average global equity active ETF total bid-ask spread of 0.5% (2)

Making investing with Hyperion accessible

  • Exchange-traded allows for easy access: We have been encouraged by the number of our clients who are accessing Hyperion’s global growth strategy via HYGG, utilising the ease of on-exchange investing.

  • Liquidity: Since listing, HYGG’s average daily value traded is $2.4 million a day (3). It is one of the most liquid global equity active ETFs on the ASX (2), enabling investors to get in and out of HYGG with ease
