Status: Open for investment
Fund Benchmark: The market value-weighted average return of funds in the South African - Multi Asset - High Equity category (excluding Allan Gray funds)
Fund Objectives: The Fund invests in a mix of shares, bonds, property, commodities and cash. The Fund can invest a maximum of 30% offshore, with an additional 10% allowed for investments in Africa outside of South Africa. The Fund typically invests the bulk of its foreign allowance in a mix of funds managed by Orbis Investment Management Limited, our offshore investment partner. The maximum net equity exposure of the Fund is 75% and we may use exchange-traded derivative contracts on stock market indices to reduce net equity exposure from time to time. The Fund is managed to comply with the investment limits governing retirement funds. Returns are likely to be less volatile than those of an equity-only fund.

Some discrepancies do exist between the Fund Research Tool Fund Fact Sheets and those published by Allan Gray. This is due to the fact that the Fund Research Tool makes use of different calculation models and has different methods of categorising and displaying data in order to make Fund comparisons possible.
