About IGNRX
The Macquarie Natural Resources Fund is a mutual fund focused on achieving capital growth and appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies operating within the natural resources sector. This includes global firms involved in energy, chemicals, metals and mining, agriculture, forestry, and other related industries. The fund employs a balanced investment approach, blending value-oriented, bottom-up research on individual company fundamentals with top-down macroeconomic analysis to identify opportunities across market cycles.
