Here risk comes before return. The portfolio is built within strict risk limits, with a focus on capital preservation and risk discipline.

Many portfolios look diversified but turn out to be strongly correlated: in times of stress they all move in the same direction.

Large losses take years to recover. And it is exactly in those moments that the wrong decisions are made. Protector I (defensive) Fund is designed to dampen those shocks structurally.

When markets turn restless you need a fund that aims for a low correlation with market movements. A fund that can form a defensive core within your portfolio through algorithmic monitoring and risk discipline.

Ideal for: Retail investors and professional investors, both business and private.

This fund has moderate volatility. That means the value of your participation can fluctuate, also over longer periods. Only invest money you can do without for the duration of the horizon (short to medium term · min. 1 year).

Growth or preservation of wealth is not guaranteed. You may lose part or all of your investment.

Focus on stability and low volatility

This is not a fund that tries to ‘be right about the market’. It aims for a positive return over a full market cycle, with limited sensitivity to broad market direction.

Minimum investment horizon: 1+ year

Investment objectives: capital preservation and gradual growth.

Strict risk framework with predefined limits

Return through structure, not through market forecasts.

Low to moderate correlation with equity markets

Return from arbitrage, relative value and actuarial cash flows.

Currency hedged

Investing involves risk. You may lose part or all of your investment.

05 · Track record & returns

Targets, no guarantees.

Net target return

per year, at moderate volatility, measured over the full horizon.

High water mark

A performance fee is only charged when the fund reaches a new highest value. Losses are recovered first, only then a fee applies again. That keeps our interests aligned with yours.

Fund value High water mark 1-3 Performance fee only here

How the high water mark works: a fee only above the previous highest value.

Current monthly figures are in the factsheets and reports for participants. In a conversation we go through the track record, with figures and sources on the table.

Key risks

The fund invests in other funds and is therefore partly dependent on the managers of the underlying funds, who may be less transparent. In addition, the fund and the underlying funds can use leverage, which can amplify both gains and losses. Currency rates and investments in less liquid or complex instruments can also lead to larger fluctuations or losses. Read the prospectus and the Key Information Document (KID) for a full description of all risks.
