Fund aim

The Fund aims to deliver long term capital growth through investment in other investment funds and direct securities.

This objective is before the deduction of any charges and measured over the long term (i.e. 5-10 years). However, the Fund is actively managed and the Investment Manager has full discretion over the composition of the Fund’s portfolio.

Performance

Performance for the Z USD Acc unit class in USD, launched on 24 August 2016. Source: Lipper. Performance assumes all fund charges have been taken and that all income generated by the investments, after deduction of tax, remains in the fund. The Cash Benchmark of the Fund transitioned on 1 January 2020 as a result of the US Federal Reserve Board sponsored Alternative Reference Rates Committee recommendation. Until this date, performance is shown against the Fed Funds Effective Rate +3.75%. From 1 January 2020, performance is shown against SOFR +3.75% (referred to as the "Benchmark" in the chart below).

Key risks

Key risks

Investment in the funds described on this website carries a substantial degree of risk and places an investor’s capital at risk. The price and value of investments is not guaranteed and can go down as well as up. An investor may not get back the original amount invested and an investor may lose all of their investment. Investment in the funds described on this website is not suitable for all investors. If an investor is in any doubt as to the suitability of an investment in a fund, an investor should consult an independent financial advisor. The information on this website does not constitute, and should not be construed as, investment advice or a recommendation to buy, sell or otherwise transact in any security including, but not limited to, shares in the funds. An investor should only invest in a fund once that investor has carefully read and understood the prospectus and KIID for the fund which contain further information on the risks and features of the fund.

The fund invests directly or indirectly in bonds which are issued by companies or governments. If these companies or governments experience financial difficulty, they may be unable to pay back some or all of the interest, original investment or other payments that they owe. If this happens, the value of the fund may fall.

By investing in other funds this fund indirectly holds bonds that are traded through agents, brokers or investment banks matching buyers and sellers. This makes the bonds less easy to buy and sell than investments traded on an exchange. In exceptional circumstances the fund may not be able to sell its holdings in other funds and may defer withdrawals, or suspend dealing. The Directors can only delay paying out if it is in the interests of all investors and with the permission of the fund depositary.

The fund could lose money if any institution providing services such as acting as counterparty to derivatives or other instruments, becomes unwilling or unable to meet its obligations to the fund.

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.

The fund may have underlying investments that are valued in currencies that are different from sterling (British pounds). Exchange rate fluctuations will impact the value of your investment. Currency hedging techniques may be applied to reduce this impact but may not entirely eliminate it.

We may take some or all of the ongoing charges from the fund's capital rather than the fund's income. This increases the amount of income, but it reduces the growth potential and may lead to a fall in the value of the fund.

Investment returns on bonds are sensitive to trends in interest rate movements. Such changes will affect the value of your investment.
