Equities offer the best opportunities for long-term growth, even though they may be volatile in the short term. Bonds are fixed income instruments that offer stability to your investments.
Including bonds in your investment mix lowers your risk while you profit from equities. Depending on your chosen combination, you can earn above average returns at below average risk.
Global Diversified Fund (GDF) offers not one, but five choices. This way, you not only balance your risks and returns; you actually fine-tune them.
- GDF- High Growth: This is a 100% equity portfolio. It offers the best way to maximise capital growth if you are prepared to withstand inevitable short-term market swings and greater volatility - in exchange for higher potential return.
- GDF - Growth: This portfolio has 70% in global equities and 30% in global bonds. This is good if you are looking for capital gain with a little bolster against volatility.
- GDF - Balanced: This portfolio allocates equally between global equities and bonds. It is right for you if you are willing to take moderate volatility and are satisfied with moderate gains.
- GDF - Stable: This portfolio comprises 30% global equities and 70% bonds. It suits you best if you favour stability with some capital growth.
- GDF - Conservative: This is a 100% bond fund. Suitable for those who want their investments to be very safe.
Positioning globally across a broad range of industries helps to temper market swings and capture opportunities in the best performing regions and sectors. This is the best way to optimise the risk-adjusted return on your investment.
- The global equity component of the fund feeds into DWS Intervest.
- This is an insurance-linked policy fund and can be invested only through our investment-linked plans.
Your money is not tied to any fixed term when you invest in this fund through our investment-linked policy. You can choose to withdraw your investment at any time*.
In the event of death, your loved ones will receive a death benefit equivalent to at least 100% of your investment amount#. You do not need to pay anything extra for this insurance protection.
You can have unlimited switches between funds. This is to ensure your portfolio objective is aligned with your investment objective, which may change along the way.
