INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund aims to provide a return, from a combination of income and capital growth, over the long term (5 years or more).
More
The Fund invests in bonds of any quality, including high yield (non-investment grade) bonds, asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities and distressed debt, issued by governments, companies or any other type of issuer, in any country. The Fund may invest up to 50% in total return swaps.
Where investments are made in assets in currencies other than the base currency of the Fund, the Fund will seek to hedge those assets back to the base currency to remove the risk of currency exchange rate movements.
The Fund may also invest in other assets including perpetual bonds, convertible bonds, contingent convertible bonds (CoCos), company shares (equities), preference shares, cash and money market instruments.
The Investment Manager may use derivatives (complex financial instruments), including total return swaps, 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 without reference to a benchmark. The Investment Manager has complete freedom to choose individual investments for the Fund and to vary allocations between different types of bonds.
Less
The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations and you may not get back the amount originally invested.
Potential investors must read the prospectus, and where relevant, the key investor information document before investing.
