CT Japan Fund Retail Accumulation EUR

Strategie

The Fund selects companies in which the fund manager has a high conviction that the current share price does not reflect the prospects for that business. These companies may be chosen from any industry or economic sector, with significant sector and share weightings taken at the fund manager's discretion. There is no restriction on company size, however, investment tends to focus on larger companies, such as those included in the MSCI Japan Index. The MSCI Japan Index is designed to measure the performance of shares across large and medium-sized companies in the Japanese market, currently with approximately 300 companies included. It provides a suitable target benchmark against which Fund performance will be measured and evaluated over time. The Fund typically invests in fewer than 60 companies, which may include shares of some companies not within the Index. The Fund may invest in other securities (including fixed interest securities) and collective investment schemes (including funds managed by Columbia Threadneedle companies), when deemed appropriate. The Fund may also hold money market instruments, deposits, cash and near cash. The Fund is not permitted to invest in derivatives for investment purposes, but derivatives may be used with the aim of reducing risk or managing the Fund more efficiently.

Ziel

The Fund aims to achieve capital growth over the long term. It looks to outperform the MSCI Japan Index over rolling 3-year periods, after the deduction of charges. The Fund is actively managed, and invests at least 75% of its assets in a concentrated portfolio of shares of companies domiciled in Japan, or which have significant Japanese business operations.
