Investment Objective

The Fund aims to achieve a return consisting of both income and capital growth which, after all fees and expenses, exceeds that of the ICE Bank of America Merrill Lynch UK Gilt TR Index over the medium to long term (defined as 5 to 10 years).

The fund manager believes a long-term investment horizon provides the opportunity to exploit short-term volatility in the pursuit of risk-adjusted returns.

The fund employs a top-down approach to researching gilts, bonds issued by the UK government. It identifies investment opportunities using a proprietary process which develops a deep understanding of economic developments and policy outlook. A highly experienced staff of research professionals thoroughly examines various factors such as monetary policy, valuations and term premiums.

The fund manager fosters a collaborative approach to idea generation, which encourages portfolio managers and credit analysts to work together on investment decision-making and portfolio construction.

The fund seeks to manage risk by relying on industry-standard measures and in-house tools. The manager believes he can deliver returns by taking a diversified approach to risk, incorporating relative value, duration and the yield curve.
