Southchester IP Optimum Income Fund (A) - SCOIA fund information

The SOUTHCHESTER IP OPTIMUM INCOME FUND shall be an Income Fund although there may be a capital appreciation element to the portfolio from time to time depending on market conditions.
To achieve this objective, the portfolio will, apart from assets in liquid form, invest in equity and non-equity security securities including but not limited debentures, bonds, notes (vanilla, credit linked and equity linked), preference shares, convertible notes, bonds, debentures and equities, derivatives for hedging purposes and any other securities which are considered consistent with the portfolio's objectives and which are permissible in terms of the Act.
The manager may from time to time invest in participatory interests or any other form of participation in portfolios of collective investment schemes or other similar collective investment schemes as the Act may allow from time to time, and which are consistent with the portfolio's investment policy. Where the aforementioned schemes are operated in territories other than South Africa, participatory interests or any other form of participation in portfolios of these schemes will be included in the portfolio only where the regulatory environment is, to the satisfaction of the manager and the trustee, of sufficient standard to provide investor protection at least equal to that in South Africa.
The Manager may from time to time invest in listed and unlisted financial instruments, in accordance with the provisions of the Act, and the Regulations thereto, as amended from time to time, in order to achieve the portfolio's investment objective.
