Invests In 7 core Themes For Future Growth

Multi-Asset | Global

  • The Fund aims at income and long-term capital appreciation by investing in global interest bearing securities and global equities with a focus on theme and stock selection.
  • The Fund is exposed to significant risks which include investment/general market, thematic concentration, thematic-based investment strategy, asset allocation, emerging market, company-specific, creditworthiness/credit rating/downgrading, interest rate changes, default, volatility and liquidity, valuation, and currency (such as exchange controls, in particular RMB), and the adverse impact on RMB share classes due to currency depreciation.
  • The Fund may invest in financial derivative instruments (“FDI”) which may expose the Fund to higher leverage, counterparty, liquidity, valuation, volatility, market and over the counter transaction risks. The use of derivatives may result in losses to the Fund which are greater than the amount originally invested. The Fund’s net derivative exposure may be up to 50% of the Fund’s net asset value.
  • This investment may involve risks that could result in loss of part or entire amount of investors’ investment.
  • In making investment decisions, investors should not rely solely on this material.
Note: Dividend payments may, at the sole discretion of the Investment Manager, be made out of the Fund’s income and/or capital which in the latter case represents a return or withdrawal of part of the amount investors originally invested and/or capital gains attributable to the original investment. This may result in an immediate decrease in the NAV per distribution unit and the capital of the Fund available for investment in the future and capital growth may be reduced, in particular for hedged share classes for which the distribution amount and NAV of any hedged share classes (HSC) may be adversely affected by differences in the interests rates of the reference currency of the HSC and the base currency of the Fund.

The Latest Strategies
Disruption – opportunities in change
New technology and other innovations are making our current era into an age of disruption, presenting challenges for corporates and national governments, as well as opportunities for investors. Yet this is more than just a tech story; the knock-on effects will be extremely broad as a range of sectors and industries seek to leverage artificial intelligence and other advances. Indeed, the winners will be those corporates – and investors – who most keenly identify the opportunities that change brings and leverage these advances effectively. Here, we highlight three areas where disruption is underway and likely to accelerate – and where change will create opportunities for success.
