Investment Strategy

The Fund’s investment strategy is to invest in a portfolio of interest rate securities that pay a fixed or floating rate of return. The Fund can invest in any interest rate securities including corporate debt, hybrid securities and structured debt securities such as RMBS and ABS. Investment in these securities will have the potential to deliver higher returns over the medium term compared to cash. The portfolio of securities will be primarily investment grade, with no more than 10% of the assets of the Fund being typically reserved for securities that are initially investment grade, however, have been subsequently downgraded to below investment grade.

AL Capital will seek to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by employing a range of active and dynamic investment strategies across the debt markets, both locally and internationally. The ability to source, understand and analyse the risk of the underlying securities and the issuers should enable a higher success of risk/return reward for investors. The portfolio takes advantage of the belief that the price of a security may differ from their intrinsic value at any point in time for a variety of reasons. For example, market dislocation through different supply and demand levels can impact the price of fixed income securities. Every time the price of a security is different from its intrinsic value there is an opportunity to benefit by taking steps to buy the security when the price is lower than the intrinsic value or to sell the security when the price is higher than its intrinsic value.

AL Capital attempts to construct a portfolio that will enhance an investor’s return from actively managing the portfolio of securities to capture these price volatilities and/or also use derivative instruments to capture price inefficiencies and risk management. AL Capital also believes that the investment manager’s main responsibility is to maximise returns on investors’ capital, subject to an acceptable level of risk. It is the job of fund managers to manage risk rather than avoid risk.

To create a balance of risk, return and, to a certain extent, liquidity in the Fund, the investment team will use the following investment criteria as part of the risk management process:

• The gearing of the Fund will be limited to a net loan to valuation ratio of no more than 50% of the assets of the Fund;
• Maximum exposure to the securities of any single issue is limited to 10% of the assets of the Fund;
• No more than 10% of the assets of the Fund will be exposed to non-investment grade credits;
• Maximum currency exposure is limited to 10% of the assets of the Fund;
• No more than 50% of the assets of the Fund will be invested in structured debt securities (which include RMBS or ABS) at any one time; and
• The Fund may invest in “fixed-rate” instruments and as such will carry a higher interest rate risk (or duration) than it would otherwise. This risk is managed (including using Derivatives) so that the average interest rate risk of the Fund is no more than two years. The Fund may use Derivatives to manage exposure to relevant markets or foreign currencies and to manage investment risk.
