Overview

Investment Approach

The Fund aims to achieve over the long-term (7-10 years) a return on your investment in the form of capital growth and income, of 0.3% per annum (gross of fees) over the composite benchmark (i.e. a number of indices averaged together to represent overall performance and risk). The composite benchmark is made up a third of the following equally weighted indices; Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Corporate GBP Hedged Index, BBG Barclays Global High Yield Index Excl CMBS & EMG 2% Capped GBP Hedged Index and J.P. Morgan EMBI ESG Global Diversified GBP Hedged Index. The Fund seeks to achieve the investment objective through active asset allocation (i.e. mix of assets) and credit security (i.e. debt issued by companies and non government entities) selection. To achieve its objective the Fund will invest on a global basis in any or all of the following asset classes: fixed income (FI) securities (e.g. government and corporate bonds), money-market instruments (e.g. debt instruments with short-term maturities), deposits, cash (in any currency), other funds and derivatives (i.e. investments the prices of which are based on one or more underlying assets).

Important Information: Capital at Risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested.

Changes to interest rates, credit risk and/or issuer defaults will have a significant impact on the performance of fixed income securities. Noninvestment grade fixed income securities can be more sensitive to changes in these risks than higher rated fixed income securities. Potential or actual credit rating downgrades may increase the level of risk. Emerging markets are generally more sensitive to economic and political conditions than developed markets. Other factors include greater 'Liquidity Risk', restrictions on investment or transfer of assets and failed/delayed delivery of securities or payments to the Fund. The value of equities and equity-related securities can be affected by daily stock market movements. Other influential factors include political, economic news, company earnings and significant corporate events. Derivatives may be highly sensitive to changes in the value of the asset on which they are based and can increase the size of losses and gains, resulting in greater fluctuations in the value of the Fund. The impact to the Fund can be greater where derivatives are used in an extensive or complex way.

All currency hedged share classes of this fund use derivatives to hedge currency risk. The use of derivatives for a share class could pose a potential risk of contagion (also known as spill-over) to other share classes in the fund. The fund’s management company will ensure appropriate procedures are in place to minimise contagion risk to other share class. Using the drop down box directly below the name of the fund, you can view a list of all share classes in the fund – currency hedged share classes are indicated by the word “Hedged” in the name of the share class. In addition, a full list of all currency hedged share classes is available on request from the fund’s management company
