Overview
The fund is an investment entity that seeks to achieve its investment objective by allocating its assets primarily in equity instruments, such as stocks and equity ETFs, and fixed income instruments, including bonds and fixed income ETFs. Its strategy is structured to provide investors with convertible security-like exposure to companies listed in the Nasdaq-100 Index. This involves investing at least 80% of its net assets, potentially up to 100%, into the said financial instruments, possibly utilizing borrowings for investment purposes to meet its strategic goals. The fund operates with a non-diversified status, which means it may invest a larger portion of its assets in fewer issuers than a diversified fund.
Products and Services
- Equity Instruments (including options and equity ETFs)
The fund invests a significant portion of its assets in equity instruments, such as individual stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that track equity indices. This includes the possibility of investing in options, which are derivatives that provide the rights to buy or sell a stock at a predetermined price, offering the fund leverage and hedging opportunities. The focus on equity instruments is to gain direct exposure to the performance of the companies within the Nasdaq-100 Index, capitalizing on their growth potential.
- Fixed Income Instruments (including bonds and fixed income ETFs)
To balance its investment portfolio, the fund also allocates a portion of its assets to fixed income instruments. This includes bonds, which are debt securities that corporations or governments issue to raise capital, and fixed income ETFs that pool various debt securities. Investing in fixed income instruments allows the fund to generate regular interest income, providing a stabilizing effect on the portfolio by offsetting the volatility associated with equity investments. This strategic blend aims at delivering convertible security-like exposure, mirroring the balanced risk and reward characteristics typically found in convertible securities.
