Investec Asset Management has launched the Luxemburg version of its multi asset protector fund, Money Marketing reports. The Investec GSF multi-asset protector fund, which is run on a fund of funds basis by the same portfolio managers as the U.K. Oeic, will invest across equities, bonds, commodities, currencies, alternatives and cash, mainly through other funds managed by Investec. The fund has a protection feature, which works through a derivatives contract that acts like an insurance policy, so that the fund should always be at least 80% of its highest share price in U.S. dollars. The fund offers cautious investors with three defensive layers, the multi-asset fund of funds approach, the dynamic asset allocation between the multi-asset portfolio and cash, in addition to the 80% protected price feature.
