The investment objective of the Sub-Fund is to seek long term appreciation, through a combination of capital growth and income. In seeking to achieve the Sub-Fund’s investment objective, the Sub-Fund will invest in medium to long term international debt securities, predominantly issued by issuers located in wealthy nations, in various currencies primarily listed on Recognised Markets in major financial markets. The Sub-Fund will invest in a broadly diversified range of debt securities (including inter alia notes, bills, bonds, commercial paper, certificates of deposit and floating rate notes) issued by governments, institutions and corporations in both developed and developing markets. The Sub-Fund will usually hold debt securities with investment grade ratings (Baa3 or above by Moody’s or BBB- or above by Standard and Poor’s or equivalent credit ratings as determined by the Investment Manager). There is no maturity limitation.
