The Fund aims to provide income with potential for long term capital growth. It looks to outperform a composite index over rolling 3-year periods, after the deduction of charges. The Fund is actively managed and invests at least 80% of its assets in other funds. The Fund usually invests in other Columbia Threadneedle funds, however, funds managed by companies outside the Columbia Threadneedle group may also be held, when this is considered appropriate. These funds may invest worldwide. The Fund focuses on investment in funds providing exposure to bonds (including corporate and government bonds), and to a lesser extent, funds investing in equities (company shares). The balance of the exposure between these different asset types may vary over time, however, equity exposure will usually not exceed 20% of the Fund’s value, under normal market conditions.
