CF Octopus Partner Fund (Absolute Return)
The Fund is aiming to achieve a long-term, positive, absolute return for investors and the Fund is managed with a cash benchmark, rather than any UK equity index. The overall aim is to deliver a positive return in all stock market conditions over the longer term.
In order to achieve the investment objective and policy the Fund will invest in a variety of investment strategies and instruments. It intends to take advantage of the ability to invest in derivatives providing both long (bought) and synthetic short (sold) positions principally through the use of contracts for difference. Therefore the Fund could be referred to as being a ‘long/short' Fund. The fund will at times also use index futures (long or short) in order to achieve an overall level of market exposure.
