The Fund aims to provide income and capital growth (i.e. to grow the value of your investment) over the long-term. The Fund invests primarily in equities (e.g. shares of companies) around the world.
The performance of years prior to 2016 was achieved under circumstances that may no longer apply. On 12 June 2015, the investment policy of the Fund was changed.
In addition, a different benchmark was used prior to 2012. Benchmark was changed for more accurate representation of the Fund’s investible universe.
The computation basis of the performance is based on the calendar year end, NAV-To-NAV, with dividend reinvested.
These figures show by how much the share class increased or decreased in value during the calendar year/performance periods being shown. Performance data has been calculated in share class currency, including ongoing charges and excluding subscription fee (initial charge) and redemption fee (if any) you might have to pay. If the currency shown differs from your home currency, returns may increase or decrease as a result of currency fluctuations. We recommend that you seek independent financial advice to ensure this Fund is suitable for your investment needs.
Where no past performance is shown there was insufficient data available in that year to provide performance.
No representation is being made that any investment will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those achieved in the past, or that significant losses will be avoided.
