Brackenham Managed Fund Comment - Jun 12 - Fund Manager Comment20 Aug 2012
The Brackenham Managed Fund is a managed prudential portfolio seeking to deliver long term capital growth and income normally associated with the investment structure of a moderate risk profile retirement fund. In order to benefit from positive market conditions and to provide a limited measure of capital and income protection during negative market conditions, the Manager will manage the portfolio's equity, property and fixed interest asset allocation actively to align the portfolio with the Manager's outlook of such conditions.
Investments to be acquired for the portfolio will cover the full spectrum of securities, and will include equities, participatory interests in collective investment schemes in property, loan stock listed on exchanges, non-equity securities, preference shares, bonds, money market instruments and assets in liquid form. The Manager may make active use of derivatives to reduce the risk that a general decline in the value of equity markets may have on the value of the portfolio. The portfolio may also invest in local or offshore collective investment schemes operated in territories with a regulatory environment which is to the satisfaction of the manager and trustee of a sufficient standard to provide investor protection at least equivalent to that in South Africa and which is consistent with the portfolio's primary objective. The portfolio's equity exposure will range between 0% and 75% of the total portfolio net asset value. The portfolio shall comply with prudential guidelines. Maximum exposure of 25% to Offshore Investments.
