Investment Objective: VT AJ Bell Adventurous Fund Class I Accumulation
The investment objective of the fund is to achieve long-term capital growth with a preference (often indirect) towards higher risk assets such as equities and less emphasis on defensive assets such as cash, fixed interest securities, money-market funds and collective investment schemes following alternative strategies such as property and commodities. This is to keep the Fund within a pre-determined risk profile. The Fund will seek to achieve its objective (and so provide exposure to the asset classes noted in the objective) by investing predominantly (80% +), in index-tracking investments or strategies (those instruments and/or investment strategies that aim to track the performance of various financial indices) and which typically consist of collective investment schemes (including those managed or operated by the ACD) as well as equities, bonds and transferable securities.
