Objective and investment policy Objective: To generate capital growth with some income over the medium term (i.e. more than 5 years). Investment policy: The Fund will hold, directly or indirectly, at least 80% of its portfolio in a mixture of equities and fixed interest securities. The Fund is actively managed, with the manager employing a strategic asset allocation model (developed in collaboration with an external provider) that is matched to a specific risk and volatility band. Accordingly, the allocation to particular asset classes may vary over time at the investment manager’s discretion as is consistent with a balanced risk and volatility level and in response to changing market conditions. However, the allocation to equities will remain within a 40%-85% range, consistent with its risk/ return profile. The Fund may invest in equities of companies from anywhere in the world, in any sector and of any market capitalisation. This may include shares in smaller companies and companies listed in emerging markets but the Fund will not purchase unlisted investments. The fixed interest component of the Fund may include government and corporate bonds (which may include emerging market and high yield bonds). These may be investment grade, sub-investment grade or unrated. Investment grade bonds for the purposes of this Fund are those which are rated at least BBB- (or equivalent) by a single rating agency at the time of purchase. The Fund may also invest in other transferable securities (including closed ended funds and exchange traded funds), and collective investment schemes which may include schemes managed by the Manager or an affiliate of the Manager, money market instruments and deposits, cash and near cash. There may be occasions where the Manager considers that it is prudent, given market conditions, to maintain higher levels of liquidity in the Fund. In such circumstances, the Manager may hold up to 20% of the Fund in cash. The Fund may gain exposure to alternative asset classes, such as commodities, hedge funds, infrastructure, property and convertibles through investment in transferable securities. The Fund may use derivatives, including exchange traded and over the counter derivatives, forward transactions and currency hedges for investment purposes as well as for efficient portfolio management. Other information: Units can be bought, sold or switched in the Fund on any business day, as defined in the Prospectus. An order must be received by the Administrator by 11:45am on any business day to receive that day’s fund price. Please note that if an order is placed by an intermediary or Financial Adviser they may require extra processing time. Units will be accumulation units. Income from investments held by the Fund will be invested into the value of the units. The Fund should be regarded as a long term investment and may not be appropriate for investors who plan to withdraw their money in the short to medium term i.e. within 5 years.
