Allianz Gilt Yield A

This factsheet should be viewed in conjunction with the Key Investor Information Document (KIID) as both provide important information. The KIID is accessible from the link on the right.

Factsheets contain information about the features of the fund such as the investment objective, fund region and past performance.

Some funds offer income units, accumulation units or both. The unit type you choose will affect the way income generated from the fund is treated. With income units, income is paid into your nominated account. With accumulation units income is retained within the fund, increasing the value of your holding.

All Investments carry an element of risk. In particular, the value of Investments and any income from them can go down as well as up and you may not get back what you originally invested.

In addition, investing in funds is subject to specific risks. Details of these risks are contained in the Key Investor Information Document which is designed to provide important information about funds as well as the risks involved.

Fund Objective

The Fund aims to maximise total return, consistent with preservation of capital and prudent investment management, primarily through investment in British government securities.
