Seafarer Capital Partners Announces Reopening of Seafarer Overseas Growth and Income Fund

LARKSPUR, Calif., Nov. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Seafarer Capital Partners announced that the Seafarer Overseas Growth and Income Fund's Institutional Class (ticker: SIGIX) will reopen to new investors on November 19. The Fund's Institutional Class is reopening because Seafarer believes the Fund has additional capacity to accept new assets. The Fund's Investor Class (ticker: SFGIX) will remain closed to most new investors.   

Andrew Foster, a Lead Portfolio Manager of the Fund and Seafarer's Chief Investment Officer, commented:  "We are pleased to reopen the Seafarer Overseas Growth and Income Fund to new investors.  Seafarer believes that it is in the best interest of long-term shareholders to restore the balance between subscription and redemption activity."

Launched in 2012, the Seafarer Overseas Growth and Income Fund seeks to offer investors a relatively stable means of participating in the growth prospects of emerging markets, while attempting to mitigate adverse volatility in returns.

The announcement of the Seafarer Overseas Growth and Income Fund's reopening follows the recent promotions of Paul Espinosa and Inbok Song to Lead Portfolio Managers of the Fund alongside Andrew Foster.  Previously, Paul Espinosa and Inbok Song served as Co-Portfolio Managers of the Fund since June 2016 and August 2017, respectively.  Paul Espinosa also serves as Lead Portfolio Manager of the Seafarer Overseas Value Fund (ticker: SIVLX), and Inbok Song serves as Seafarer's Director of Research and Chief Data Scientist.

The Seafarer Overseas Growth and Income Fund was closed to most new investors on September 30, 2016, in an effort to manage its investment capacity and moderate the pace of subscriptions.

For additional information on this announcement, please see the Fund's prospectus (www.seafarerfunds.com/prospectus) or contact Seafarer (www.seafarerfunds.com/contact).
