Fund overview

Objective: To deliver a positive return over rolling three-year periods regardless of the prevailing stock market environment. The Fund aims to generate a positive return, on average 3% per annum above the Bank of England Base Rate before the deduction of charges, over rolling three-year periods. In seeking to target this level of return the Fund also aims to manage volatility to a target of less than half the volatility of global equities, measured over the same rolling three-year periods. These aims, however, are not guaranteed and it may not always be possible to achieve positive returns or to achieve the target level of volatility over rolling three-year periods, or over any period of investment. Consequently, investors' capital is at risk.

Investments: The Fund invests across a broad range of global asset classes (including emerging markets) that may include shares, bonds, cash, commodities, indirect property, and currencies. Other funds may also be used to gain exposure to these asset classes. The Fund will make significant use of derivative instruments for investment purposes.

 

Strategy:The Investment Manager actively combines strategies to seek advantage from market inefficiencies taking both long and short positions on companies and indices.
