Alexander Credit Income Fund - Managed Fund

Fund Objective
The fund aims to provide clients with a consistent income stream and stable unit price by investing in a diversified portfolio of primarily, investment grade, Australasian fixed income credit assets.
Fund Strategy
The Investment Manager applies a Relative Value Trading approach to identifying opportunities in the fixed income credit markets and an overall hedging strategy that looks to protect against systemic shocks to the markets. The portfolio targets a Credit Duration range of positive five years to negative two years and an Interest Rate Duration range of positive one year to zero years. This means that the portfolio can be short credit risk. The Fund may use derivatives for both investment and hedging purposes.
