Kopernik’s investment philosophy is centered on the belief that market inefficiencies present numerous opportunities to identify quality businesses at attractive prices. The Firm utilizes bottom-up fundamental analysis to gain a thorough understanding of a company’s business and valuation.

The Kopernik Global Opportunities strategy seeks capital appreciation by investing in small/mid- to large-cap equities across the world including emerging and frontier markets, which Kopernik believes are trading at a significant discount to their risk-adjusted intrinsic values. Generally, the strategy does not invest in issuers with market capitalization below $3 billion, as measured at time of purchase.
