INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund aims to provide capital growth over the long term.
Performance target: To outperform the MSCI EMU Net Return EUR Index, after the deduction of charges, over any 5 year period.
More
The Fund invests at least 75% of its assets in shares (equities) and equity-related securities of companies, of any size, in any industry, in Euroland Countries (i.e. countries having adopted the Euro as their national currency in the member state of the European Monetary Union). Companies will be incorporated in or having their principal business activities in Euroland Countries.
The Fund may also invest in other assets including companies outside of Euroland Countries, cash and money market instruments.
The Investment Manager may use derivatives (complex financial instruments) to reduce risk or to manage the Fund more efficiently.
The Fund is actively managed with reference to the MSCI EMU Net Return EUR Index, which is broadly representative of the companies in which it may invest, as this forms the basis of the Fund's performance target and the level above which performance fees may be charged (if applicable). The Investment Manager has discretion to choose investments for the Fund with weightings different to the index or not in the index, but at times the Fund may hold investments similar to the index.
