CARE Fund

Fund's Description

CARE Fund is an open-ended global unit trust fund, which will invest at least 70% of its NAV in Australian and Canadian financial markets. Due to their resource-based economies, the Manager views Australia and Canada as two of the best-positioned countries in the developed world to benefit from the rapid growth of emerging economies such as China. The Fund seeks to offer investors the opportunity to participate in the medium to long-term capital growth potential of companies in these two countries as both economies have emerged largely unscathed from 2008’s global financial crisis and are now buoyed by the resurgence of their resource-based industries.

 

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks to achieve capital growth over a medium to long-term period by investing primarily in securities of companies in Australia and Canada. The Fund may also invest in equities and equity-related securities, fixed income securities, structured products and money market instruments.

Investment Strategy

The Fund will generally invest at least 70% of its NAV in Australian and Canadian markets and the balance of 30% of the Fund’s NAV in other markets within the MSCI AC World Index which are deemed beneficiaries of resource-driven demand from emerging markets. The Fund aims to achieve its investment objective through a diversified portfolio of equities and equity-related securities and fixed income securities in any sector within those countries.

The Fund has the flexibility of changing its asset allocation strategy depending on investment market climate. This flexibility allows the Manager to look for investments in markets that it believes will provide the optimum asset allocation in terms of risk and reward to capitalise on any market opportunities to meet the Fund’s objective.
