Overview

Investment Approach


The Fund aims to generate a high income on your investment.

The Fund invests globally in the full range of assets in which a UCITS may invest, including equity securities (e.g. shares), fixed income (FI) securities (such as bonds), funds, cash, deposits and money market instruments (i.e. debt securities with short term maturities).

The Fund is actively managed and the asset classes and the extent to which the Fund is invested in these may vary without limit depending on market conditions and other factors at the investment adviser's (IA) discretion. In selecting these, the IA may take into consideration a composite benchmark comprising MSCI World Net Index (70%) and the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index USD Hedged (30%) (the “Index”) when constructing the Fund’s portfolio, and for risk management purposes to ensure that the active risk (i.e. degree of deviation from the Index) taken by the Fund remains appropriate given the Fund’s investment objective and policy. Whilst the Index is used by the IA in constructing the portfolio of the Fund, the IA is not bound by its components or weighting when selecting investments. The IA may also use its discretion to invest in securities not included in the Index in order to take advantage of specific investment opportunities. The Fund’s portfolio holdings are expected to deviate materially from the Index. The components of the Index (i.e. MSCI World Index and Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond Index US Hedged) may be quoted separately in marketing material related to the Fund.

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.

Credit risk, changes to interest rates and/or issuer defaults will have a significant impact on the performance of fixed income securities. Potential or actual credit rating downgrades may increase the level of risk. Currency Risk: The Fund invests in other currencies. Changes in exchange rates will therefore affect the value of the investment. 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 are 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

To the extent the Fund undertakes securities lending to reduce costs, the Fund will receive 62.5% of the associated revenue generated and the remaining 37.5% will be received by BlackRock as the securities lending agent. As securities lending revenue sharing does not increase the costs of running the Fund, this has been excluded from the ongoing charges.
