| 3. Investment objectives | |
| Previous objective | To provide income and capital growth over the long term (5 years +) by gaining exposure to a diversified portfolio of global equities. The fund may also invest in other transferable securities, collective investment schemes (including those managed or operated by the ACD), money market instruments, deposits, cash and near cash. Derivatives (that is sophisticated investments linked to the rise and fall of one or more underlying assets) may be used for efficient portfolio management purposes. It is expected that the portfolio will be relatively concentrated. A key element in portfolio construction is an assessment of investee companies' approach to environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues (e.g. whether they pay due attention and consideration to ESG concerns and demonstrate this through ESG policies and practice). Investments will only be made in companies which the Investment Manager considers make a positive contribution to environmental, social and/or governance matters and so help in the development of a sustainable global economy. Companies involved in industries such as the production of fossil fuels, alcohol and tobacco, gambling or controversial weapons are automatically excluded from the investment universe. |
| New objective | To provide income and capital growth over the long term (5 years +). The fund aims to achieve this objective by investing at least 80% in a diversified portfolio of shares in companies in any geographical location. The fund may also invest in other transferable securities such as government bonds and corporate bonds, collective investment schemes (including those managed or operated by the ACD), money market instruments, deposits, cash and near cash. Derivatives (that is sophisticated investments linked to the rise and fall of one or more underlying assets) may be used for efficient portfolio management purposes. It is expected that the portfolio will be relatively concentrated (typically around 30-39 stocks). The fund seeks to generate income and capital growth with a robust and disciplined investment process that focuses on investing in companies typically offering an attractive combination of growth, profitability and stability and holding them for the long term (5 years +). Companies involved in industries such as the production of fossil fuels, alcohol and tobacco, gambling or armaments are excluded from the investment universe. |
