QIF**

*The Fund has a performance aim of 3-Month Sterling Libor + 2% pa over rolling three-year periods, gross of fees. This is not a guarantee, may not be achieved and a capital loss may occur. Funds which have a higher performance aim generally take more risk to achieve this and so have a greater potential for the returns to be significantly different than expected.
