Anyone know if their is a more modest way of getting invested in Platts fund ,as I don't have a spare 1 million at the mo ,Thanks.

Absolute Return Partners have a fund of funds (The ARP Saphire Fund) that solely invests in the all blue fund. Think it is still a minimum of 75k initial investment though.

Thanks NM,although Leda Braga's fund performs very well also,its Platts fund i'm solely interested in.
His consistency is nothing short of spectacular ,even through 08/09 .
As fund managers go ,he's a rock star.
His philosophy is very similar to my own,protect the capital.

I'd imagine those positions are not buy and holds,the way they micro manage risk,i'd imagine theirs a lot of trading around those positions.Dont think it would be as simple as buy that bucket of shares and replicate the returns(Unfortunatly)
