Summary of Fund Objective

To seek to generate high levels of income and, as a secondary objective, capital growth. The Fund mainly invests, directly or indirectly through derivatives, in below investment grade (high yield) corporate bonds. They may also invest in government bonds and in debt securities rated as low as C by Moody's or D by S&P. These investments may be from anywhere in the world, including emerging markets.

What Are The Key Risks?

The Fund does not offer any capital guarantee or protection and you may not get back the amount invested.

  • The Fund is subject to the following risks which are materially relevant:
    Asset-backed securities: The timing and size of the cash-flow from asset-backed securities is not fully assured and could result in loss for the fund. These types of investments may also be difficult for the fund to sell quickly.
    Bonds: There is a risk that issuers of bonds held by the fund may not be able to repay the investment or pay the interest due on it, leading to losses for the fund. Bond values are affected by the market's view of the above risk, and by changes in interest rates and inflation.
    Derivatives: The use of derivatives can result in greater fluctuations of the fund's value and may cause the fund to lose as much as or more than the amount invested.
    Emerging markets investment: The fund may invest in the markets of countries which are smaller, less developed and regulated, and more volatile than the markets of more developed countries.
    Fund counterparties: The fund may suffer losses if the parties that it trades with cannot meet their financial obligations.
    Fund currency: Changes in exchange rates between the currencies of investments held by the fund and the fund's base currency may negatively affect the value of an investment and any income received from it.
    Fund operations: The fund is subject to the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people or systems or those of third parties such as those responsible for the custody of its assets, especially to the extent that it invests in developing countries.
    Interest rates: Changes in interest rates may negatively affect the value of the fund. Typically as interest rates rise, bond values fall.
    Liquidity: In certain circumstances it may be difficult to sell the fund's investments because there may not be enough demand for them in the markets, in which case the fund may not be able to minimise a loss on such investments.
    Low rated bonds: The fund may invest in lower rated or unrated bonds of similar quality, which carry a higher degree of risk than higher rated bonds.

Complete information on the risks of investing in the Fund are set out in the Fund's prospectus.
