The Northstar BCI Global Flexible Fund aims to provide investors with high long-term capital growth.
The portfolio will have at least 80% exposure to markets outside of South Africa. The Manager shall have the maximum flexibility to vary assets between asset classes and countries reflect the changing economic and market conditions. The portfolio's investment universe consists of equity securities, preference shares, property shares and property related securities, notes, non-equity securities, bonds, inflation linked bonds, corporate bonds, debentures, other interest bearing instruments and securities as well as assets in liquid form.
The portfolio may invest in participatory interests or any other form of participation in portfolios of collective investment schemes or other similar collective investment schemes as the Act may allow from time to time, and which are consistent with the portfolio's investment policy. Where the aforementioned schemes are operated in territories other than South Africa, participatory interests or any other form of participation in portfolios of these schemes will be included in the portfolio only where the regulatory environment is, to the satisfaction of the manager and the trustee, of sufficient standard to provide investor protection at least equivalent to that in South Africa. The portfolio may from time to time invest in listed and unlisted financial instruments, in accordance with the provisions of the Act, and the Regulations thereto, as amended from time to time, in order to achieve the portfolio's investment objective. The manager may also include forward currency, interest rate and exchange rate swap transactions for efficient portfolio management purposes. The Trustee shall ensure that the investment policy set out in this Supplemental Deed is carried out. For the purpose of this portfolio, the manager shall reserve the right to close the portfolio to new investors on a date determined by the manager. This will be done in order to be able to manage the portfolio in accordance with its mandate. The manager may, once a portfolio has been closed, open that portfolio again to new investors on a date determined by the manager.
