| Asset Allocation | • 90% to 98% in equities and/ or debt Instruments • 2% to 10% in cash/ money market Instruments • Min 50% in equities and/ or bonds The above asset allocation of the Fund is only indicative and will be reviewed from time to time depending on economic and market conditions. The bulk of investments will be invested over a medium to long-term period with active disposal and liquidation of the investments, a strategy to control risk as well as to optimise capital gains.

The equity and fixed income allocation may be reduced to below the minimum levels indicated at the discretion of the Manager only during exceptional circumstances.
