|
Inception Date 14 January 2004 |
SEDOL Code 3377284 |
The following is only a summary of the Fund. For a full description, please consult the Fund's prospectus.
The investment policy of the Global Short-Dated Bond Fund is to purchase high-quality, investment grade, short-term fixed income and floating-rate securities and money market instruments issued by governmental, quasi-governmental and corporate issuers in developed countries which mature in five years or less. At the present time, developed countries comprise those countries which are members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). It is expected that most of the assets of the Fund held in foreign-currency-denominated instruments will be hedged back into the base currency of the portfolio. It is not the current intention of the Fund to invest in emerging markets.
The Global Short-Dated Bond Fund is organised under Dimensional Funds ICVC, an investment company with variable capital incorporated with limited liability and registered in England and Wales under the Open Ended Investment Companies Regulations 2001. Dimensional Funds ICVC is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.
