The Fund is designed to provide a secure income with stability of capital consistent with investment in gilts.
The Fund invests mainly in short, medium or long-dated gilts according to M&G’s view at any given moment of the likely course of interest rates and trend of the gilt-edged market. The Fund’s exposure to gilts may be gained through the use of derivatives. The Fund may also invest in other assets including collective investment schemes, other transferable securities, other debt instruments, cash and near cash, deposits, warrants, money market instruments and other derivative instruments.
