Robeco Global DM Conservative Equities AUD Hedged - Managed Fund (Closed)

Fund Objective
The objective of the Fund is to deliver equity returns at a substantial lower downside risk than that of the MSCI World Index net dividends reinvested, in AUD Hedged ('Reference Index'). The portfolio aims to achieve the highest long-term Sharpe ratio (the average return earned in excess of the risk-free rate per unit of volatility or total risk), delivering returns equal to or greater than its Reference Index over a full market cycle.
Fund Strategy
The investment strategy of the Fund seeks to capture the low risk anomaly described as follows. Analysis by Robeco has shown that low-risk stocks (in terms of volatility and beta) are able to generate returns equal to, or greater than, the market with lower associated risks. The beta of a stock or portfolio is a number describing the correlated volatility of an asset in relation to the volatility of the benchmark that the asset is being compared to.
