What else do investors need to know?
The raise is expected to increase PGF's assets under management, with the firm targeting a post-offer fund size of roughly $1.85 billion. This expansion is also tipped to enhance the fund's daily trading liquidity, potentially making it more attractive to advisers, brokers, and retail investors.
No costs from the capital raising will be paid by PGF shareholders, as all expenses are covered by Regal Partners, the parent entity of PM Capital. Neither the placement nor the SPP is underwritten, and the board retains the discretion to scale back applications over the targeted amounts.
What did PM Capital Global Opportunities Fund management say?
Paul Moore, Chief Investment Officer of PM Capital and Portfolio Manager for PGF, said:
PGF has delivered strong long-term performance for shareholders, and we are pleased to provide both new and existing shareholders with the opportunity to invest in the Company at NTA.
For us, investing is about taking a long-term view and being disciplined about the price we pay. We've applied that approach consistently throughout PGF's history – investing with conviction when we see value and giving those investments time to play out. That has delivered strong long-term returns and supported consistent, fully franked dividends for shareholders.
What's next for PM Capital Global Opportunities Fund?

Key dates include the SPP opening on 21 August and closing on 7 September 2026, with new shares to be quoted from mid-September. PGF has also reminded shareholders to review the detailed risks and benefits set out in the investor presentation on the ASX.
