The Sarasin Commodity – Diversified aims to secure long-term capital growth for its investors through strategic investments in the global commodity markets. Adhering to a comprehensive risk management policy, the fund focuses on minimizing risks while striving for growth. By implementing a diversified investment approach, it optimally allocates resources across various commodities, including energy sources, agricultural products, and metals. This diversification is achieved through equal weighting across different categories and within individual commodities, whenever market conditions and regulatory frameworks permit. The fund also enhances its diversification strategy by selecting commodities that exhibit minimal correlation with one another, thus further mitigating investment risks.
The core offering of the Sarasin Commodity – Diversified is its investment in a broad spectrum of commodities on the international market. This includes, but is not limited to, energy resources such as oil and gas, agricultural products like grains and coffee, and various metals, both precious and industrial. The primary goal is to generate substantial returns over the long term by leveraging the diverse commodities market.
Risk management is pivotal to the investment policy of the Sarasin Commodity – Diversified. Through meticulous market analysis and adopting a diversified investment approach, the fund aims to reduce investment risks. This is achieved by distributing investments equally across different commodity sectors and within each sector, depending on the feasibility as per market and regulatory circumstances. Furthermore, the fund carefully selects commodities with low correlation coefficients to optimize the diversification benefits and, in turn, minimize the overall investment risk.
The investment strategy of equal weighting is two-pronged: it applies to the broader categories of commodities (energy, agriculture, and metals) and extends to individual commodities within these categories to ensure a balanced investment portfolio. This strategy not only aims at reducing risks inherent to commodity investments but also at enhancing the potential for capital growth by spreading the investments across various sectors and commodities with little to no correlation. This holistic approach to diversification stands at the core of the fund's objectives to optimize investor returns while minimizing risk exposure.
