If Profits are scarce in one territory ...
... the Strategic Assets Fund hunter is free to move to another.
How do you make money, no matter what is happening in the economy and markets?
There are obviously no guarantees. But you can maximise your chances of good returns by investing not just in a range of different equities, but in a variety of assets as well.
The trick, of course, is choosing the right class or classes of investments — in the right proportions. There will be times when bonds outperform equities, when commodities beat currencies, and so on. So funds that have the freedom to change and diversify their asset allocation make sense — especially in these volatile times.
Which assets, though, and when?
These are difficult decisions for investors, easier to get wrong than right.
Never before has a hunter been given the licence to hunt in so many different directions. Free to hunt equities, fixed interest Profits, currency or commodities in any combination he sees fit. Free to move out of one asset class and into another, wherever, in fact, the prevailing conditions point him. The hunter tasked with this expedition is William Littlewood, a man who has proved himself to be a true all rounder.

The value of an investment, and any income from it, can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency valuations and you may not get back the amount originally invested. Investments in fixed interest securities are subject to credit and market risk, and fluctuations in interest rates. The fund may invest in higher yielding bonds, which may increase the risk to your capital due to a higher likelihood of default by the bond issuer. Changes to market conditions and interest rates can have a larger effect on the values of higher yielding bonds than other bonds.
A proportion of the fund may be invested in geographic or market sectors (e.g. emerging markets or smaller companies) which can involve a higher degree of risk than usually associated with more mature markets and larger companies meaning above average price movements, both positive and negative, can be expected.
The fund may use exchange traded funds (ETFs), exchange traded commodities (ETCs) and exchange traded notes (ETNs) to gain exposure to commodities. Prices of the ETFs, ETCs and ETNs may be higher or lower than the value of the underlying investments. Other factors which may influence the prices of ETFs, ETCs and ETNs include: global supply and demand of the commodity involved; investors' expectations with respect to inflation rates; currency exchange rates; interest rates; investment and trading activities of hedge funds and commodity funds; and global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations. In addition, a downgrade in the credit rating of an ETN issuer may cause the value of the ETN to fall despite there being no change in the underlying index.
If the fund has a high cash exposure at a time when markets are rising, the investment return could be less than if it was fully invested.
As well as holding assets that may rise or fall with market values, the fund may also hold derivatives (primarily contracts for difference) with the aim of creating positions which increase in value as the price of the related investment falls. However, the fund may lose money from those positions if the related assets rise in value.
Full information on the fund is available in the Key Features incorporating the Simplified Prospectus, which you should read carefully before making any investment decision.
