Overview
Objective
The Fund seeks to provide capital growth over the longer term.The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by holding shares or similar instruments relating to US companies which have a market capitalisation smaller than that of the company with the largest market capital value in the Russell 2000 index at the time the investment is made. Such companies are either based in or earn most of their profits or revenues from the US. The Fund will not invest more than one-third of its assets in shares or similar instruments of other companies or in bonds issued by corporate or government entities, convertibles (securities that can be converted into other types of securities), money market instruments and non-share related instruments.
Risk Profile
- Counterparty risk a party that the Portfolio transacts with may fail to meet its obligations which could cause losses.
- Custodian risk insolvency, breaches of duty of care or misconduct of a custodian or subcustodian responsible for the safekeeping of the Portfolio's assets can result in loss to the Portfolio.
- Derivatives risk derivative instruments are highly sensitive to changes in the value of the underlying asset that they are based on. Certain derivatives may result in losses greater than the amount originally invested.
- Exchange rate risk changes in exchange rates may reduce or increase the returns an investor might expect to receive independent of the performance of such assets. If applicable, investment techniques used to attempt to reduce the risk of currency movements (hedging), may not be effective. Hedging also involves additional risks associated with derivatives.
- Liquidity risk the Portfolio may not always find another party willing to purchase an asset that the Portfolio wants to sell which could impact the Portfolio's ability to meet redemption requests on demand.
- Market risk the value of assets in the Portfolio is typically dictated by a number of factors, including the confidence levels of the market in which they are traded.
- Operational risk material losses to the Portfolio may arise as a result of human error, system and/or process failures, inadequate procedures or controls.
- Small capitalisation companies risk investing in the securities of smaller, lesserknown companies may involve greater risk due to the less certain growth prospects, the lower degree of liquidity (see liquidity risk) of such shares and the greater sensitivity of small companies to changing economic conditions.
