| Investment Strategy |
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a basket of collective
investment schemes that have similar investment objective to the Fund’s investment objective
of capital growth, through exposure in countries in the Asia-Pacific ex Japan region which
include but are not limited to Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Korea,
Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand. Investments in collective
investment schemes will be confined to those managed by the Provider and have proven
performance track record.
The Provider will actively monitor the Fund’s investments in selected collective investment schemes to ensure optimal returns while adhering to the Fund’s pre-determined asset allocation. The Provider has the flexibility to rebalance the asset allocation should it deem necessary based on the prevailing market conditions. The Provider may also take temporary defensive positions that may be inconsistent with the Fund’s investment strategy in response to adverse economic, political or any market conditions. In such circumstances, the Fund may hold up to 100% in money market instruments and deposits as a defensive strategy. |
| Asset Allocation |
At least 70% of the Fund’s NAV will be invested into equity collective investment schemes; and
Up to 30% of the Fund’s NAV may be invested into fixed income and/or money market collective investment schemes. |
| Performance Benchmark |
The performance benchmark is a composite of MSCI AC Asia-Pacific ex Japan (70%) and
Malayan Banking Berhad 12 months fixed deposit rate (30%). This composite performance
benchmark represents the general asset allocation adopted by the Fund, i.e. 70% in equity
collective investment schemes which invest primarily in the Asia-Pacific ex Japan region
and 30% in domestic fixed income and/or money market collective investment schemes.
