The investment objective of the VT AJ Bell Balanced is to achieve long-term capital growth with a balanced approach between lower risk assets such as cash and fixed income and higher risk assets such as equities.
The investment objective of VT AJ Bell Balanced is to achieve long-term
capital growth with a balanced approach between defensive assets such
as cash, fixed interest securities, money-market funds and collective
investment schemes following alternative strategies such as property
and commodities, and higher risk assets such as equities. This is to keep
the Fund within a pre-determined risk profile. Capital is in fact at risk and
there is no guarantee that capital growth will be achieved over a 5 year, or
any period.
The Fund will seek to achieve its objective (and so provide exposure to
the asset classes noted in the objective) by investing predominantly (80%
+), in index-tracking investments or strategies (those instruments and/or
investment strategies that aim to track the performance of various
financial indices) and which typically consist of collective investment
schemes (including those managed or operated by the ACD) as well as
equities, bonds and transferable securities.
The Fund may also invest in non-index tracking collective investment
schemes, equities, bonds, transferable securities, money market
instruments, deposits, cash and near cash.
The Fund will not have any particular geographic, industry or economic
sector focus and as such weightings in these may vary as required. The
Fund may have exposure to emerging markets through its investments in
e.g. collective investment schemes or futures.
The Fund's risk profile is managed by restricting the types of asset held
and allocations to those assets. The risk profiles are determined by the
external risk rating agency's forward looking volatility assumptions. The
Fund aims to operate with a risk rating of 5, on a scale of 1-10 where 1 is
an allocation to cash and 10 is an allocation to riskier equity regions such
as Asia and emerging markets.
Derivatives (that is sophisticated investment instruments linked to the rise
and fall of the price of other assets) are held only for efficient portfolio
management purposes.
Derivatives:
The Fund may hold derivatives only for efficient portfolio management purposes. It is not intended that the use of derivatives for efficient portfolio management purposes will increase the risk profile of the Fund.
