Overview

Investment Objective

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide a total return of capital growth and income over the medium to long-term. In order to achieve its investment objective, the Fund will invest by virtue of the quota and capacity under the Renminbi Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors (RQFII)framework, primarily in a portfolio of fixed income instruments issued onshore in the PRC.

Although the Fund will invest primarily in Onshore RMB Income Instruments, the Fund may, at the absolute discretion of the Managers, invest in fixed income instruments issued offshore outside of the PRC and that are denominated in RMB as well.

The Fund may also invest in fixed income instruments issued by Chinese entities that are denominated in currencies other than the RMB. Please note the Managers in their absolute discretion may elect to hedge the currency exposure of the Fund's investments in Non-RMB Income Instruments back to the base currency of the Fund (i.e. RMB). The Fund may also invest in investment grade bonds and non-investment grade bonds, all of which will be subject to a minimum credit rating of "B-" by Standard & Poors or an equivalent rating by Investors Service or Fitch Ratings. If a credit rating is not available from any of the 3 aforementioned rating agencies, the Managers will use its internal credit rating to ensure that the Fund is in compliance with the above creditrating requirements. There is no target industry or sector.
