Managed by Barry Norris, the VT Argonaut Absolute Return Fund uses a simple long/short equity strategy to deliver attractive and positive returns with historically low correlation to equity markets.
This means it invests in its “long book” in stocks with significant earnings upside potential and in its “short book” in stocks with significant earnings downside potential. This combination aims to minimise market risk and maximise alpha generation. Volatility is also managed through flexible market exposure.

Argonaut Capital Partners LLP (Argonaut) proposes to merge the VT Argonaut European Alpha Fund (‘Alpha Fund’) and VT Argonaut Equity Income Fund (‘Income Fund’) into a new global fund, the VT Argonaut Flexible Fund (‘Flexible Fund’).
The Flexible Fund will sit in the Investment Association (IA) Flexible sector and will be a long-only strategy combining Argonaut’s high conviction global equity portfolio with greater flexibility for tactical allocations to government bonds, cash, and precious metals as diversification tools to mitigate volatility and/or enhance returns.
The Flexible Fund’s equity exposure will vary according to market conditions but is expected to be 50-80%. Its geographic scope will be global, with a focus on developed Pan-European and North American assets. Unlike the VT Argonaut Absolute Return Fund, which is a long/short strategy, the Flexible fund will not short stocks, nor will it use leverage.
The objective of the Flexible Fund will be to deliver capital appreciation (and income) over the long term via an active, fundamental investment approach and a concentrated portfolio of equity investments whilst using its non-equity exposure to mitigate risk of capital loss over the economic cycle.
The proposed merger will be constituted via a “Scheme of Arrangement,” requiring approval from unitholders via EGM.
The new units issued will have the same acquisition cost and acquisition date for the purposes of tax on capital gains as your existing units and will not therefore give rise to a capital gains charge.
Please note that should you choose to redeem or switch your units prior to the Merger, a redemption or switch will be treated as a disposal of shares for tax purposes, and you may be liable to capital gains tax on any gains arising from the redemption.
The proposed timelines are as follows:
The key reasons for the proposed merger of the Alpha Fund and Equity Income Fund into the Flexible Fund are investment related.
We believe a global mandate (rather than one restricted to Europe-ex-UK) and the widening of the manager’s discretion to be able to invest in non-equity instruments will enhance the overall investment proposition for current and prospective unit holders, producing superior absolute and risk-adjusted returns over the long term.
We have back-tested the returns over two decades for this proposed strategy using a 2/3rds fixed allocation to Argonaut’s flagship fund equity portfolio together with a fixed allocations to T-Bills, Cash and Gold. The results are compelling – see below for both the data and our methodology.
Argonaut launched in 2005 with the aim of generating alpha from active, fundamental, and unconstrained equity investing, with a focus on European equities. Over time and with the launch of the flagship VT Argonaut Absolute Return Fund, our investment universe has broadened to Global, incorporating the world’s largest and most liquid stock markets in the United States.
Our experience convinces us that Argonaut’s idea generation process – an evolution from over two decades of accumulated wisdom, learning from mistakes and refinements to process – shouldn’t be constrained to a narrow geographical universe which restricts opportunities based on legacy design.
The performance of the long/short VT Argonaut Absolute Return Fund and the opportunities identified outside of Europe since it moved to a less restrictive geographical mandate bear this out and we are keen for Argonaut’s long-only franchise to similarly benefit from a larger, more liquid stock universe and all of our best ideas. Importantly, however, the Flexible Fund will still be permitted to invest in every European stock the legacy funds currently own.
In addition to the investment advantages, the merger is expected to reduce overall costs for existing unit holders while there will be operational benefits also with all Argonaut funds utilising the same investment universe. Post merger, Argonaut will have two strategies – the long/short VT Argonaut Absolute Return Fund and the long-only VT Argonaut Flexible Fund.
In his epic 3rd century poem, Apollonius of Rhodes, recalled the Argonauts leaving the Aegean Sea and to travel to a remote corner of the known world in the Black Sea in search of the Golden Fleece. We believe a similarly outward-looking mindset and spirit of derring-do – expressed through a flexible global mandate – can deliver even better outcomes for clients in the coming years.
We hope you will continue to place your trust in Argonaut by supporting our proposal.

*Simulated Track Record Methodology
Equity exposure: As the new fund will – like the VT Argonaut Absolute Return Fund (AR Fund) – be able to invest in the US as well as Europe, we have taken the equity “asset” return as the monthly return on the long book of the AR fund grossed up or down to 100%*. In order to incorporate dynamic allocation based on historic behaviour, we have used two rules for monthly weighting to “equities”:
Equity returns prior to the launch of the VT Argonaut Absolute Return Fund were taken from the long only European equity funds managed by Barry Norris at the time.
Source of equity returns as follows:
Non-Equity Exposure: Bond exposure calculated using a fixed exposure of 10% of NAV, using US Treasury Bills (unhedged). Gold exposure calculated using a fixed exposure of 10%, using the WisdomTree Physical Gold ETF. Cash is calculated as the residual of the allocation to the other 3 asset classes above, using the Barclays Benchmark Overnight GBP Cash Index.

All Argonaut funds use the same investment process to select stocks, which will also reflect our current investment views, but there are some key differences in the expected return profile of the different funds and their potential investment universe.
The Absolute Return fund is a global long/short equity fund which aims to deliver a return profile which is uncorrelated to the stock market and therefore most other funds. It seeks to achieve this largely through “shorting” stocks it doesn’t like, which “hedges” the market exposure of the bigger “long” portfolio, stocks we think will appreciate in value. It may also use “leverage” to potentially enhance returns. The success of the strategy should therefore be measured in terms of “absolute” rather than “relative” returns. The expected return profile may therefore offer valuable diversification for unitholders away from overall stock market direction.
The Alpha and Income funds will usually be fully invested, predominantly in European equities, without any ability to “short” or “hedge” market exposure. The success of these strategies should therefore be measured in terms of “relative” performance to the European stock market. In addition, the Income fund will seek to maximise opportunities in high dividend yielding stocks, offering its unitholders attractive dividend income.
