How is this fund different to others?

With a strong indicative dividend yield, this fund provides global diversification and a passive income stream. These Aristocrats come from all sectors; most prominently from financials, utilities, communication services and real estate. This sector diversity combined with the strong dividend history of constituents gives confidence in the stability of future pay-outs.

Risk

The risk indicator reflects how much the value of the Fund’s assets goes up and down (volatility). A higher risk generally means higher potential returns over time, but more ups and downs along the way. The lowest risk rating doesn’t mean “risk-free” and this risk indicator is not a guarantee of a Fund’s future performance.
