The Sub-fund aims to outperform (after deduction of costs) the J.P. Morgan GBI-EM Global Diversified Index unhedged in sterling by 0.6% per annum over rolling three-year periods. The Sub-fund will invest at least 80% in bonds issued by emerging market issuers or in emerging market currencies. Emerging markets will be determined by the investment manager at its sole discretion. The Sub-fund will be actively managed and is not constrained by the index. To the extent that the Sub-fund is not fully invested in such bonds, the Sub-fund may also invest in other developed market bonds, other transferable securities, money market instruments, deposits and cash.
