The objective of the Sub-Fund is to provide income whilst maximising total returns in the Euro-denominated short term fixed income market. The Sub-Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in Euro-denominated short-term debt securities and investments. The Investment Manager will look to maintain capital and liquidity, whilst maximising total returns and income, by investing in short-term fixed and floating rate debt securities and debt obligations (as described below) issued by sovereign and corporate issuers, including non-European issuers, which are denominated in Euro and rated investment grade or, if unrated, are considered by the Investment Manager to be of comparable quality. The Sub-Fund may also hold a maximum of 20% of its Net Asset Value in low-rated, non-investment grade and / or defaulted debt securities or obligations.
