Aim of the fund
To achieve long term capital growth primarily through investment in quoted equity and fixed interest stocks throughout the world.
Fund specific risks
- Funds with the ability to use gearing/leverage (G) - Funds which are permitted to use geared investments such as warrants, options and derivatives to magnify returns. Used in this manner they carry a higher degree of risk than other equity investments. It is possible that the fund may suffer sudden and large falls in value so that the short fall on cancellation, or the loss of the realisation on the investment at any time after the investor has bought the contract, could be very high and could even equal the amount invested, in which case you would get nothing back.
- Down as well as up (I) - The value of investments, and any income can fall, as well as rise, so you could get back less than you invested. Neither capital nor income is guaranteed.
- Long term (J) - Investments should be regarded as long term and are not suitable for money which may be needed in the short term, you should always have a sufficient cash reserve.
- Funds which can hold derivatives (M) - Funds which are permitted to use investments such as warrants, options and derivatives for what is known as Efficient Portfolio Management (EPM). They can be used to effectively take a position (or reduce an existing position) in a share or index, allowing positions to be altered more quickly and cost effectively than dealing directly in the underlying investment, but are not generally used to try and magnify returns. However, investors should be aware that the use of these instruments can, under certain circumstances, increase volatility and risk beyond that expected of a fund that only invests in conventional equities.
- Offshore Funds (N) - You are not normally entitled to compensation through the UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
