About this fund

Fund objectives

  • The Fund seeks to hold investments that will pay out money and increase in value through a portfolio comprising approximately 20% shares and 80% bonds.
  • The Fund gains exposure to shares and bonds and other similar fixed income investments by investing more than 90% of its assets in Vanguard passive funds that track an index (“Associated Schemes”). Direct investment in shares and bonds and other similar fixed income investments may also be made.
  • The Fund is actively managed in that the Investment Adviser has discretion in respect of the Associated Schemes in which the Fund may invest and the allocations to them, each of which may change over time. The Investment Adviser manages the Fund through the pre-determined exposure to shares and bonds (and other similar fixed income investments), as detailed above.
  • The Fund will have exposure to shares of UK companies and non-UK companies (including emerging markets (i.e. countries that are progressing toward becoming advanced, usually shown by some development in financial markets, the existence of some form of stock exchange and a regulatory body)), and to Sterling-denominated and non-Sterling denominated bonds (including government bonds, index-linked bonds and UK investment-grade bonds). The UK will generally form one of the largest single country exposures for shares and bonds.
  • The Fund attempts to remain fully invested and hold small amounts of cash except in extraordinary market, political or similar conditions where the Fund may temporarily depart from this investment policy.
