At the same time, the Fund also attempts to attain medium- to long-term capital appreciation. 200% 150% 100% 50% 0% ‐50% Oct‐08 May‐09 Dec‐09 Jul‐10 Feb‐11 Sep‐11 Apr‐12 Nov‐12 Jun‐13 Jan‐14 Aug‐14 Mar‐15 Oct‐15 May‐16 Dec‐16 Jul‐17 Feb‐18 Sep‐18 Fund Benchmark INVESTOR PROFILE The Fund is designed for investors who prefer a regular income stream, stable investment returns and potential for medium- to long-term capital appreciation between 3 and 5 years. It is suitable for conservative investors who seek relatively higher returns than fixed deposit but are averse to higher risks associated with high equity exposure. Our strategy will be to stay defensive in stocks that offer decent yields and focus on undervalued companies with high earnings visibility by taking a more opportunistic approach. We will also continue to capitalize on opportunities during periods of volatility, which can result in some value emerging. Nonetheless, we are cognizant of the elevated level of risk in the short-to-medium term and the resulting volatility in currencies and fund flows.
