Price (Acc)
These are the shares in the fund that don’t pay out an income to clients. Any dividends – the money a company can pay out to its investors – are reinvested into companies in the fund. Despite no income, the shares should be worth more over time. Good incentive, eh?

Annual management charge
This is how much the fund management company charges to run the fund. It’s like paying a babysitter, dog sitter or house sitter (that makes well-informed, heavily researched changes to improve your baby/dog/house when needed).

Yield
How much the fund is currently paying out in income to investors. It’s NOT to be confused with the overall growth of a fund – a very different thing indeed. It’s also NOT a guarantee of future pay-outs, just a snapshot. This is more what it’s not than what it is…
A Luxembourg registered SICAV seeking to maximise risk adjusted returns by investing primarily in USD denominated high yield fixed income securities issued by North American companies. The fund may also invest in non-USD denominated high yield bond securities issued by European companies, as well as emerging market debt. The reference benchmark for performance purposes is the Barclays US High Yield - 2% Issuer Cap. Currency exposure is hedged to GBP.

Investment process
Whilst the mandate is run from New York, the portfolio management team will draw on Goldman Sach's global analyst resource. The investment approach is driven by both bottom-up security selection and an analysis of top-down macro economic risks. Both the issuer selection and portfolio construction decision making process emphasise qualitative over quantitatively analysis. The portfolio management team estimate that 80% of their added value in portfolio management is derived from a combination of issuer and security selection, while the remaining 20% of value added comes from our sector allocation decisions. Over 90% of the fund's exposure is to USD denominated high yield credits.

About the MRI
Our unique indicator: the Bestinvest Manager Record Index (MRI) measures the likelihood that the fund manager is adding value through their decisions. It is based on their performance record over the course of their career, adjusted for the amount of risk taken. MRI is an important contributor to our fund rating system but it is also vital to take account of qualitative factors. It is also very important to select funds to form a cohesive portfolio with an appropriate overall risk level.
