WG Momentum Factor Fund

Factor investing is defined as selecting stocks presenting certain characteristics (factors) that have proven to achieve high risk-adjusted returns over the past years. 

This fund's objective is to outperform the Moroccan stock market over a 5-year period. To achieve this, the fund invests in Moroccan stocks that have historically outperformed the benchmark; a "factor" or characteristic commonly referred to as “outperformance consistency” or “Momentum”. This strategy is based on the idea that stocks that have outperformed their benchmark in the past are likely to continue to outperform in the future, while those that have historically underperformed are likely to remain unattractive in the future.

How does it work ?
