Perpetual Conservative Growth Fund

Offers investors moderate medium-term growth as well as some income, while managing risk.

The Perpetual Conservative Growth Fund aims to offer investors moderate medium-term growth as well as some income, while managing risk. The Fund is broadly diversified but with an emphasis on cash and fixed income. A value philosophy drives active decisions around weightings between asset classes and within asset classes.

A “total portfolio” approach seeks out only the best risk adjusted returns, while portfolio protection strategies aim to protect on the downside during extreme events.

Investment Approach

The fund invests in a diverse mix of growth, defensive and other assets, with a focus on cash and fixed income securities. Tactical asset allocation strategies may be applied, which involves the fund adjusting its exposure to asset classes on a regular basis within the investment guidelines. Currency is managed at the fund level, taking into account currency exposure arising from underlying investments. Currency management is used to either hedge currency for an existing position or create an exposure to a foreign currency. Net foreign currency exposure will be limited to 50% of the gross asset value of the fund. Derivatives and exchange traded funds may be used in managing each asset class.
