Fund Objective

To achieve long-term capital growth in excess of inflation from a portfolio invested across a broad range of asset classes. The Fund is intended to provide steady rates of return with significantly lower risk than more traditional approaches to portfolio management, which tend to be largely dependent on the performance of equities. The portfolio was restyled in September 2005.
