Basic Stocks
– ISI Global Equities
Investment philosophy
The fund invests globally in shares. Investments are diversified across different countries and industries. The fund’s largest investments are in USA and Europe. The fund pursues an equal weight value strategy. The concept of equal weight is that all equity investments in the fund represent roughly the same share. If the fund has invested in 200 shares, each share will constitute around 0.5% of the fund. When we invest according to a value strategy we select companies which are inexpensively priced based on a number of financial ratios relative to the share price of the companies.
Target group
The fund is typically designed for investors seeking an alternative to investing directly in foreign equities with satisfactory diversification across countries, sectors and companies, which may be included as a supplement to other investments. Investors are aware that the risk level of the fund is higher than that of bond funds, that price fluctuations may be con-siderable and that there may be periods of negative returns. As a result the value of your investment may have declined if you suddenly need the money. The typical investor has an investment horizon of at least four years and is not looking for annual dividend payouts.
