Overview

Fund objective

The Positive Change Fund aims to outperform (after deduction of costs) the MSCI ACWI Index, as stated in sterling, over rolling five-year periods. It also aims to contribute to a more sustainable and inclusive world through investing in companies whose products and/or services contribute to impact themes addressing critical social and/or environmental challenges, measured over at least a five-year period.

The manager believes this is an appropriate performance target given the investment policy of the Fund and the approach taken by the manager when investing. In addition, the manager believes an appropriate performance comparison for this Fund is the Investment Association Global Sector.

There is no guarantee that this performance objective will be achieved over any time period and actual investment returns may differ from this objective, particularly over shorter time periods.

Investment proposition

The Fund invests in an actively managed portfolio of 25-50 global high quality growth companies which can deliver positive change in one of four current areas: Social Inclusion and Education, Environment and Resource Needs, Healthcare and Quality of Life; and Base of the Pyramid (addressing the needs of the world's poorest populations). The Positive Change Decision Makers generate ideas from a diverse range of sources. With a focus on fundamental in-house research, the team complete a two stage analysis of all holdings, looking at both the financial and positive change aspects case for each stock using a consistent framework. The output is a high conviction and differentiated portfolio. We aim for a low turnover, around 20% per annum over the long run.

Strategy behind the fund

Risk Warnings

Risk Introduction

Investment markets can go down as well as up and market conditions can change rapidly. The value of an investment in the Fund, and any income from it, can fall as well as rise and investors may not get back the amount invested. The specific risks associated with the Fund include:

Custody

Custody of assets, particularly in emerging markets, involves a risk of loss if a custodian becomes insolvent or breaches duties of care.

Impact

There is no universally accepted definition of impact. Furthermore, there is a risk that individual investments fail to make a positive contribution to society and/ or the environment, and that overall the Fund fails to meet its objective.

Emerging Markets

The Fund invests in emerging markets where difficulties in trading could arise, resulting in a negative impact on the value of your investment.

Concentration

The Fund's concentrated portfolio relative to similar funds may result in large movements in the share price in the short term.

Foreign Currency

The Fund has exposure to foreign currencies and changes in the rates of exchange will cause the value of any investment, and income from it, to fall as well as rise and you may not get back the amount invested.

Volatility

The Fund's share price can be volatile due to movements in the prices of the underlying holdings and the basis on which the Fund is priced.

Environmental, Social and Governance

The Fund invests in companies whose products or behaviour make a positive impact on society and/or the environment. This means the Fund will not invest in certain sectors and companies and the universe of investments available to the Fund will be more limited than other funds that do not apply such criteria. The Fund therefore may have different returns than a fund which has no such restrictions.

Further Information

Further details of the risks associated with investing in the Fund can be found in the NURS-Key Investor Information Document or the Prospectus, copies of which are available at bailliegifford.com.
