Multi-Manager Diversified Fund

The Fund invests in Collective Investment Schemes (other funds including those managed by Janus Henderson and Exchange Traded Funds) to provide diversified global exposure to a range of assets including shares (equities) of companies, bonds issued by companies and governments, and to a lesser extent, alternative assets such as property, commodities, private equity and hedge funds. The Fund may also invest directly in other assets including developed market government bonds, investment trusts, cash and money market instruments. The Investment Manager may use derivatives (complex financial instruments) with the aim of making investment gains in line with the Fund's objective, to reduce risk or to manage the Fund more efficiently. The Fund is actively managed with reference to the IA Mixed Investment 0-35% Shares sector average, which is based on a peer group of broadly similar funds, as this forms the basis of the Fund's performance target and limits the level of exposure the Fund may have to company shares. The Investment Manager has a high degree of freedom to choose individual investments for the Fund and to vary allocations between asset types within the constraints of the sector.
