The return target is 4% annualised associated with an expected volatility level of less than 7% over the medium-short term. The Fund’s investment process is not based on a benchmark established by a strategic asset allocation but on a tactical and dynamic allocation of resources. The investment selection process is based on a bottom-up portfolio construction activity combining both quantitative and fundamental analyses, an opportunistic evaluation of investments with the selection of best investment ideas and strict risk control both at overall portfolio level and in relation to individual positions.

Each position is subject to an estimate of the expected contribution to the overall portfolio result (profit target) and the maximum potential loss (stop loss), as well as the identification of a specific investment ratio. Updating the evaluations of individual positions in relation to market trends and the results achieved, and verifying return targets and risk limits are an integral part of the Fund’s investment process.
