We have made certain fund updates effective 2 December 2024. Please see the shareholder notice below for details.
Quarterly Update
Watch the investment team recap this quarter.
(Note: Recorded in October 2025).
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The Fund aims to achieve a positive absolute return in excess of the UK base interest rate, after charges (but before the deduction of any performance fees) over the long-term (rolling 3 year periods) regardless of market conditions. The Fund aims to typically deliver absolute (more than zero) returns over a rolling 12 month period. An absolute return performance is not guaranteed over this specific, or any other, time period and consequently capital is in fact at risk.
ABOUT THIS FUND
- Targets absolute returns regardless of market direction with carefully monitored exposure to the stock market.
- Experienced team with time-tested approach through market cycles; supported by the wider Pan-European equities team.
- The fund aims to enhance the overall risk/return characteristics of a balanced portfolio, with a key focus on preserving capital.
RATINGS AND AWARDS
S&P assigns a Principal Stability Fund Rating (PSFR) for money market funds within a range from AAAm (highest) to Dm (lowest), where AAAm indicates S&P's opinion of a fund's extremely strong capacity to maintain principal stability and to limit exposure to principal losses due to credit risk and Dm indicates a failure to maintain principal stability resulting in a realized or unrealized loss of principal. Ratings do not eliminate risk and should not be used as the sole basis for evaluating an investment product. Please see Ratings Criteria at disclosure.spglobal.com/ratings/en/regulatory/ratings-criteria for further information. A fee was paid for the use of this data.
