The fund operates with a clear objective focused on achieving a balanced mix of current income and capital appreciation. This is strategically pursued under the guidance of the fund's subadviser. Its strategy primarily involves investing a substantial portion of its assets in a variety of bonds. The fund places a strong emphasis on flexibility and diversification, extending its investment reach to both domestic and international markets, including emerging economies. This approach allows the fund to adapt to different market conditions, aiming to deliver consistent returns to its investors.
The core of the fund's strategy is the investment in bonds. Specifically, it commits at least 80% of its investable assets to bond securities. These are primarily fixed income securities with maturation periods extending beyond one year from the date of issue. This strategy is designed to provide investors with a stable flow of current income while seeking opportunities for capital appreciation over time.
A distinctive aspect of the fund's investment strategy is its allocation of up to 30% of its assets to speculative, high-risk, below investment-grade securities. This portion of the portfolio is aimed at investors seeking higher potential returns, acknowledging and accepting the increased level of risk associated with such securities.
Expanding its horizon beyond domestic investments, the fund also dedicates up to 30% of its investable assets to foreign debt securities. This includes debt from both established and emerging markets, providing an additional layer of diversification. This strategy aims to tap into the growth potential of international markets, which may offer higher yields in comparison to domestic markets, albeit with an associated increase in risk.
