Specialist funds

This fund is designed to generate positive total returns from a diversified portfolio of bonds, other debt securities, collective investment schemes and money market instruments, with a bias towards sterling denominated assets.

In normal circumstances, the fund will aim to deliver income in excess of the average rate achievable through a one-year cash deposit.

As well as its core sterling share class, the Canaccord Genuity Bond Fund is available in euro, Swiss franc, Australian, Canadian, Singapore and US dollar hedged share classes.

This fund is appropriate if your clients are seeking growth over the longer term.

With an equal emphasis between capital growth and preservation of capital, this fund has built a solid long-term track record by adopting an active and dynamic approach to both asset allocation and security selection.

It primarily adopts a top-down approach, with a starting asset allocation split equally between return seeking assets such as equities and more defensive securities such as government bonds and gold. The fund’s unconstrained approach to asset allocation allows the fund manager to shift the portfolio quickly, and with conviction, between alternative economic scenarios.

The fund holds multiple asset classes. Up to 65%* of its net assets may be invested in international equity markets, with investment made directly into individual securities.

This fund is suitable for clients, who have a medium investment risk tolerance.

In selecting suitable investment opportunities for the Fund, the Investment Manager will adopt a static asset allocation strategy with periodic adjustments only made to return the asset allocation of the Fund to the desired Strategic Asset Allocation (SAA) given market movements and/or fund flows.
