Fund policy

The Fund is a multi-asset South African high equity fund. The objective of the Fund is to generate long-term wealth for investors by producing inflation beating returns. The Fund will invest in a diversified range of local asset classes as permitted by legislation. The Fund will seek to deliver consistent returns over the medium to long term by blending maximum equity exposure with other asset classes. The Fund will invest primarily in South African equities, fixed income, money markets, instruments based on the value of any precious metal, and property. The portfolio is not permitted to invest offshore. The Fund will aim to deliver returns in excess of the benchmark. This will be obtained by following a disciplined and methodological investment process of selecting the most appropriate asset allocation for the market environment and then selecting the securities which will maximise the probability of outperforming the benchmark.
