Fixed Income Global Opportunities Fund

Fixed Income

Fixed Income Global Opportunities Fund

Overview

Investment Approach

The Fund aims to achieve a return on your investment through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s assets. The Fund invests primarily in fixed income securities (such as bonds) on a global basis and money-market instruments (i.e. debt securities with short term maturities). The fixed income securities and money-market instruments may be issued by governments, government agencies, companies and supranationals.

Important Information: Capital at Risk. All financial investments involve an element of risk. Therefore, the value of your investment and the income from it will vary and your initial investment amount cannot be guaranteed.
