About BIJEX

The Brown Advisory – WMC Japan Equity Fund is a mutual fund focused primarily on Japanese equities. Its core objective is to achieve total return through investment in shares of companies that are either domiciled in Japan or conduct the predominant part of their business activities there. The fund is managed by Wellington Management, employing a valuation-driven strategy with an emphasis on identifying businesses with strong balance sheets, attractive valuations, and potential for value realization through proactive corporate engagement. Notably unconstrained and non-benchmark-oriented, the fund displays a bias toward mid- and small-cap companies, with high active share and diversified sources of potential alpha. While its main allocation is to Japanese equities, the fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in companies outside of Japan. Its portfolio spans various sectors including technology, healthcare, basic materials, financial services, and consumer goods, reflecting the breadth and depth of Japan’s corporate landscape.
