The investment objective of the fund is to provide current income and capital appreciation from a diversified portfolio of world-wide high quality fixed income securities denominated in Euro listed and/or traded on Recognised Exchanges while limiting fluctuations in principal value. The fund will invest in fixed income securities denominated in Euro that are issued by private and governmental issuers, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, asset backed securities which are rated BBB-/Baa3 or better by Standard & Poor´s or Moody´s or which have a comparable rating from an equivalent rating agency at the time of purchase or, if not rated, are determined to be of comparable quality by the Portfolio Manager. The Sub-Fund is permitted to invest in Russian traded equities but, given the focus of the Sub-Fund, it is not currently envisaged that the exposure to Russian traded equities will exceed 5% of net assets.
