The fund seeks to provide a response to the financing needs of the French and European PMEs ETIs and to capture their growth potential over the long term. To this end, the basic analysis of eligible companies is combined with an approach to environmental, social and governance (ESG) opportunities and risks and is framed by the management company's SRI policy.

Providing a response to the financial needs of French and European SME-ETI companies and capturing their growth potential 

For companies, meeting the challenges of tomorrow requires a responsible approach and offer, a resumption of productive investments and a strengthening of their own funds, the foundation for growth.
In order to support the recovery of a more sustainable economy, the funds has for several years invested more than 50% of its assets in equity instruments issued by companies located in France. It thus benefits from the ''Relance'' label created by the French government.

Active and unconstrained management, framed by a rigorous socially responsible investment policy

The construction and management of the portfolio combine financial and extra financial approaches and are based on:

  1. Identification of investment themes considered to have higher potential, i.e. favourable in both the major trends and in the economic and financial context.
  2. A selection of securities within these investment themes, supplemented by securities selected for their own interest and meeting the criteria defined by Dorval AM.
  3. A breakdown of these securities in the portfolio, based on a proprietary rating methodology established using the same criteria and moreover combining financial and extra financial analyses as well as an analysis of the ''senior managers/companies'' combination.

Information concerning the methodology and data relating to extra-financial analysis are available in the SRI policy and the Code of transparency of Dorval Asset Management available here.

The fund eligible for the PEA and PEA SME, also with the SRI label

The fund is in compliance with the criteria of the Equity Savings Plan (PEA) and the Equity Savings Plan of small and medium sized companies (PEA SME) and therefore promotes the development of French and European companies. Moreover, Dorval's AM's socially responsible investment policy allows it to benefit from the ''SRI'' State label.

One last question ?

  • The economist Jean Bodin wrote that "The only wealth is man". When devising the Dorval Manageurs Small Cap Euro fund, we set out on the following premise: when the "manager-company" combination works, performances are never far behind. Our job is therefore to identify companies whose directors have managerial skills that align with the company's strategy. This expertise is particularly important because the small and mid cap universe is where quality of management is the most decisive for the success of an investment."
  • "We decided to not restrict ourselves to a completely French offering and to go beyond our borders to find the most interesting companies in the eurozone that meet our criteria."
  • "To determine directors' qualities we look in particular at their experience, their team, their track record on external growth, etc. Stock-picking is more than just a theoretical analysis, it involves systematic and regular meetings with the directors of these companies."
