Positive returns across most market conditions

What does the fund invest in?
The fund systematically invests across multi-asset derivative strategies that have the potential to deliver diverse and highly differentiated sources of return from:
-
Long volatility strategies that aim to profit from rising implied or realised volatility and may also act as a hedge against extreme market moves, and
-
Diversifier strategies that aim to generate positive returns, in normal market conditions, regardless of the direction of the market.
Investments that meet the fund managers’ screening criteria are allocated based on their specific contribution to risk, to ensure the fund maintains a net long volatility bias. Derivative positions are backed by government bonds.

Derivatives Risk: The Fund is entitled to use derivative instruments for investment purposes and for efficient portfolio management and/ or to protect against exchange risks. Derivatives may not achieve their intended purpose. Their prices may move up or down significantly over relatively short periods of time which may result in losses greater than the amount paid. This could adversely impact the value of the Fund. The Fund may enter into various financial contracts (derivatives) with another party. Where the Fund uses futures or forward foreign currency contracts (derivatives), it may become exposed to certain investment risks including leverage, market, mismatching of exposure and/or counterparty risk, liquidity, interest rate, credit and management risks and the risk of improper valuation. Any movement in the price of these investments can have a significant impact on the value of the Fund and the Fund could lose more than the amount invested.
-
Issuer/Credit Risk: The Fund invests in government and corporate bonds. All bonds will be investment grade (i.e. at or above S&P rating BBB- or deemed equivalent). If any of the bonds the Fund owns suffer credit events the performance of the Fund could be adversely affected.
-
Liquidity Risk: In certain market conditions some assets in the Fund may become less liquid than at other times so selling at their true value and in a timely manner could become more difficult.
-
Legal and Regulatory Risk: Future legal or regulatory change could have a significant effect on the Fund.
-
Other Risks: Other risks the Fund is exposed to include but are not limited to are possible changes in interest rates, changing expectations of future market volatility, changing expectations of equity market correlation and changing dividend expectations.
