The Fund adopts an actively managed multi-asset strategy designed to provide investors with regular income while offering the potential for long-term capital appreciation across varying market conditions. It pursues a strategic allocation of approximately 70% to Shariah-compliant global equities* to capture growth opportunities, and 30% to Shariah-compliant fixed income* instruments to support income generation and capital preservation. The portfolio may also hold cash, cash equivalents and Islamic liquidity funds to manage liquidity and navigate changing market environments (*+/- 10% leeway for tactical asset allocation). To achieve broad diversification, the Fund may invest in a range of Shariah-compliant collective investment schemes and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), including global Islamic equity and fixed income strategies deemed permissible by its Shariah Advisory Body. The Fund may also allocate a small portion of its assets to Shariah-compliant gold ETFs as an additional diversification tool. Investors can choose between accumulation or quarterly income distribution options, catering to a range of financial goals. All income distributions will be subject to a Shariah-guided dividend purification process1 to ensure continued alignment with Islamic investment principles.
