Absolute Return Funds

Absolute return funds aim to yield real returns for investors, regardless of whether markets are rising or falling. These funds will appeal to people who are more comfortable with lower levels of risk. Similarly, diversified assets funds will suit people wishing to gain exposure to more diversified assets than a typical managed fund.

The Global Targeted Returns Fund (Invesco) seeks to deliver long-term capital growth with a low tolerance for capital loss. It aims to outperform cash returns. The fund uses a broad range of investment ideas based on advanced derivative techniques to gain exposure to a selection of assets across all economic sectors worldwide.

  • The fund invests in the Invesco Global Targeted Returns fund which is managed by Invesco Management S.A.
