The fund will utilize a large range of investments, including fixed income, currencies, equity, convertible securities (including contingent convertible securities), money market instruments, bank deposits, depositary receipts, collective investment vehicles, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and derivative instruments to pursue its objective.
