Investment Approach

The Evermore Global Value Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation by primarily investing in the equity securities of businesses undergoing some form of strategic change (“special situations”) where there are substantial disconnects between market price and business value, and, where catalysts exist that may narrow these discounts for the benefit of Fund shareholders. A focus on capital preservation is at the core of our strategy.
