Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2

The Fund seeks to generate equity-like returns over the long-term, take less risk than the market and avoid permanent impairment of capital.

Strategy · summarised

The fund invests primarily in equity securities selected through fundamental analysis for absolute value—companies believed undervalued by markets, often out-of-favor or undiscovered, with strong earnings growth potential and competitive advantages—supplemented by debt securities, cash, and short positions to lower volatility and diversify opportunities. The portfolio managers may sell short to profit from anticipated price declines or hedge existing positions. Because security selection depends on the managers' judgments about company value and future earnings, fund performance will diverge from market returns based on the accuracy of those assessments.

The outer band is exposure held short — written against the portfolio rather than part of it, which is why it sits outside the ring and why the two are never netted into one figure.

Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.

Cumulative return· Apr 2023 – Feb 2026

Mar 2026 has been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so it is not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.

Risk profile

Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q1

Most of this fund’s sensitivity is to interest rates, with credit spreads carrying a small fraction as much.

Interest-rate duration
0.20 yr
approx. move per 100bp
Credit-spread duration
0.01 yr
approx. move per 100bp
If rates and spreads both rise 100bp

Where the loss would come from. The two shocks are the same size, so this is the balance of the fund's two sensitivities rather than a bet on one moving more.

of value
Interest rates94%
Credit spreads6%

Filers report the impact of a 0.01% move only, so the total is our own scaling of that one number and overstates the loss on most bonds — read it as approximate, never as precise. The two sensitivities overlap rather than add up: they measure the same positions against different shocks, which is why the durations above are shown side by side and never summed.

Share of duration at each point, shortest first. A positive figure loses value when spreads widen; a negative one offsets — a credit hedge.

The two bands measure the same positions against different shocks and do not add — a Treasury carries rate duration and no spread duration, a floating-rate credit the reverse. Rate tenors are also summed across every currency the fund discloses.
