Objectives and Approach

Objective: capital growth, while closely controlling risk. The Fund also aims to deliver an absolute return (above zero performance, irrespective of market conditions) over rolling 12 month periods. In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the fund will aim to deliver a return, net of fees, in excess of the Federal Reserve Funds Target Rate over rolling 3 year periods. For performance measurement purposes, the cash benchmark will differ for non-base currency classes. The Fund also aims to achieve its objective within an annualised volatility limit of 6 per cent.The Fund may invest in company shares and similar investments listed or located anywhere in the world. The Fund uses derivatives (i.e. financial contracts whose value is linked to the expected price movements of an underlying investment), with the aim of generating returns and reducing the overall costs and/or risks of the Fund. The Fund will adopt a structured neutral position (balancing long and short positions aiming to build a portfolio with zero market exposure) at all times. The Fund will hold a long position (benefit from buying an asset with the aim of selling it later at a higher price relative to the market) in an investment expected to outperform the market, and short (benefit from the sale of an asset with the aim of buying it later at a lower price relative to the market) an investment expected to underperform the market. The Fund can take long and short positions through the use of derivatives, which may result in the Fund being leveraged. Leverage magnifies the exposure of the Fund to greater than the underlying investments. In such situations, returns may rise or fall more than they would have done otherwise, reflecting such additional exposure. The Fund is actively managed. Portfolio construction is driven by systematic analysis of companies against several distinct characteristics including stock price valuation, balance sheet quality, growth characteristics, efficient use of capital, analyst sentiment and supportive market trends to identify attractively priced investment opportunities.

        Important Information
        Headline performance can mask the true characteristics of a fund. Without fully understanding how a fund is managed, you may inadvertently become exposed to an undesirable level of risk to your capital. Some funds carry a dilution levy which reduces the number of units realised on any initial investment as an initial charge. If this fund carries such a levy it should be detailed in the Key Investor Information Document (KIID), which we must provide and you should read before investing.

        The charts and performance data shown are supplied by an external data provider and may contain data that appears to precede the introduction of the clean unit class for this fund. In such cases, historical data has been synthesised at the entire discretion of that external provider as realistically as possible using historical data recorded against the previously available commission-paying version of the fund, adjusting for fees in the process.
