Investing for longer increases the likelihood of positive returns. Over a period of 5 years or more, investments usually give you a higher return compared to cash savings. But investments can go down as well as up in value. So you could get back less than you put in.
Fund Objective:
The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve absolute returns. The Fund seeks to achieve this objective through a process of economic analysis in both global currency and fixed income markets. There are both medium and short term based themes involved in the Fund’s strategy.
