Insync Funds Management

What Insync Funds Management does

Insync Funds Management Limited is a privately-held, Sydney-based Australian funds management firm (AFSL 322891) founded in 2009 by Monik Kotecha, an industry veteran with 33+ years of global experience across London, New York, and Sydney. The firm operates three investment funds targeting long-term capital growth through a proprietary Triple-Layer Decisioning Model that combines systematic megatrend identification, quantitative algorithmic position sizing (70%), and fundamental analysis (30%): the Global Capital Aware Fund (inception October 2009, previously the Global Titans Fund) with downside protection overlays, the Global Quality Equity Fund (inception July 2018), and the NZ-domiciled Global Quality Equity PIE Fund launched in August 2025 via FundRock NZ Limited. The firm generates revenue primarily through recurring management fees and performance fees on funds under management, distributed through three channels: the OLIVIA123 direct online platform for retail investors, 14+ Australian financial advisor wrap platforms (including Netwealth, HUB24, Colonial FirstWrap, Macquarie Wrap, and BT Panorama), and the FundRock NZ PIE structure for New Zealand investors. The portfolio concentrates on high-quality global equities positioned to benefit from structural megatrends such as digital payments (MasterCard, Tencent), interactive entertainment (Nintendo), the silver economy (McKesson), and trading-down consumer behaviour (Dollar General). The firm holds third-party validations including Money Management Fund Manager of the Year (Emerging Manager, 2020), Zenith Funds Approved (2025), SQM Research Superior rating (2025), and Morningstar Sustainability Rating of High for both flagship funds. Headcount is reported at 1-10, reflecting a lean, founder-led operating model without institutional ownership or external funding.

Core offering

Insync Funds Management is an Australian funds management firm that manages global equity portfolios targeting long-term capital growth through investment in high-quality companies positioned to benefit from structural global megatrends. The firm operates three funds (Global Quality Equity Fund, Global Capital Aware Fund, and Global Quality Equity PIE Fund for NZ investors), applying a proprietary Triple-Layer Decisioning Model that combines megatrend identification, quantitative algorithms, and fundamental analysis. The Global Capital Aware Fund additionally incorporates hedging strategies for downside protection against major market drawdowns.

Product overview

Insync Funds Management is an Australian funds management firm offering a concentrated suite of three investment funds: the Global Quality Equity Fund (inception July 2018), the Global Capital Aware Fund (inception October 2009, formerly Global Titans Fund), and the Global Quality Equity PIE Fund for New Zealand investors (inception August 2025). All three funds share a unified investment philosophy centered on identifying and capitalizing on global megatrends through Insync's proprietary Triple-Layer Decisioning Model, which combines megatrend identification, quantitative algorithm-driven decision-making, and fundamental analysis.
