Frequently asked questions
Who leads investment decisions at Ophir Asset Management?
Andrew Mitchell and Steven Ng serve as co-portfolio managers for the flagship Ophir Opportunities Fund. Both have been with the firm since its founding in 2011 and share responsibility for stock selection and portfolio construction. They are supported by a small team of analysts, though the firm does not publicly list the full team.
Does Ophir use leverage or derivatives?
Per public filings and fund documents, the Ophir Opportunities Fund operates without leverage, short selling, or derivatives as core tools. The fund is a pure long-only equity strategy, providing straightforward beta exposure with a focus on alpha from stock selection.
Is Ophir affiliated with any larger financial group?
Ophir Asset Management is an independent boutique. It is not part of a bank, insurance company, or global asset manager. The founders Mitchell and Ng own the firm, which remains private.
What sectors does Ophir typically avoid?
The firm does not publish a strict exclusion list. However, given its small-cap focus it naturally avoids large-cap, commodity-exposed mining and energy companies that dominate the broader ASX. Its disclosed holdings skew to financials, healthcare, industrials and consumer-facing businesses.
