Our Global Flexible strategy offers investors balanced exposure to international growth assets. Asset allocation is equity centric and is adjusted depending on valuation levels.
Fund Objective
To provide long term capital growth from an actively managed portfolio comprising equities, bonds, listed property and cash – both local and foreign. To achieve long term capital growth, the fund will have a bias towards equity (which typically offers the best returns over the long run), but no guidelines have been set for maximum and minimum exposures to any one asset class.
Our benchmark is 60% equities, 20% bonds and 20% cash with each category split equally between local and international assets. The fund is classified with ASISA as a Worldwide – Multi Asset – Flexible fund.

Fund Objective
The Fund is a multi-asset, globally diversified portfolio investing in equities, bonds, property, and money market instruments without restriction. It does not import target bands across any of these classes and may deviate materially from its benchmark (50% equities, 30% bonds, and 20% money market).
We seek to achieve our investment objective of long-term capital growth with an acceptable level of risk through an actively-managed portfolio of assets, spread over a broad range of asset classes, currencies and geographies in varying proportions over time. The fund should be viewed as a medium to long term investment.
