Fund Manager Top Pick for 2012!

This fund has been selected by Fidelity Investment Managers as a Top Pick Fund for 2012.

Why do the Investment Managers think it has good growth and investment potential?

This fund has a proven track record in bull and bear markets delivering a combination of strong performance and lower volatility than alternative funds. The allocation to different assets is carefully adjusted over time, within set parameters so it's fully in-tune with the economic cycle and it offers broad diversification through exposure to five asset classes - cash, bonds, equities, property and commodities

Key points to note:

As economic conditions change, different asset classes perform differently. The point of multi asset investing is to anticipate these changes and to adjust the amount invested in each asset to deliver a combination of growth while looking to temper, as far as possible, the potential risk of capital loss.
The manager, Trevor Greetham, uses his proprietary Investment Clock model to adjust exposure to asset classes across the market cycle

Why you believe this fund will outperform?

The fund has a proven long-term track record in asset allocation across market cycles
It has delivered low volatility returns and helped to limit losses during periods of market volatility
It has the flexibility to react if economic conditions change and a more risk-on investment style is appropriate

What is the fund objective?

The Fund's investment objective is to achieve long-term capital growth by investing in a range of global assets providing exposure to bonds, equities, commodities, property and cash.

The Fund will invest primarily through other regulated collective investment schemes, including schemes managed by Fidelity, and may also invest directly in other transferable securities, money market instruments, cash and deposits.
