Overview
This actively managed, defensive equity fund invests in companies from across the globe that offer a high dividend yield.
The fund aims to generate additional income through call overwriting.
The fund focuses on quality factors to exclude low quality stocks, including the company’s ability to pay stable or growing dividends.
Local currency risks are largely hedged versus USD.
The strategy is based on a quantitative model.
The portfolio manager is not tied to the benchmark in terms of investment selection or weight.
The distributing (-dist) share classes of this sub-fund intend to distribute capital (premiums from writing call options) as well as income (e.g. from dividends). See risk section below.
This share class distributes a constant percentage share of the NAV, not a constant amount.
This share class is designed for investors who want to profit from performance opportunities on the financial markets and at the same time wish more stable distributions at a specific percentage level to cover recurring liquidity needs.
As the distributions are substantial, this share class is not designed for investors who want to build wealth. The latter may prefer the accumulating share class.
This share class must not be seen as an alternative to a savings account or fixed-interest paying investments.
The percentage distribution rate of this share class is unrelated to the interest or other income generated in the fund. The distribution is a percentage payment of the current amount of investment.
It is possible that the distributions result in an erosion of assets and a reduction of invested capital.
This share class may distribute capital as well as income. There are potential negative tax consequences for some investors in some jurisdictions. See risk section below.
