Mutual Fund · Currency in USD · Last updated Jun 5, 2026

The Fund aims to generate stable income and capital growth by investing at least 80% of its net assets in securities of artificial intelligence companies and related technology sectors, using a multi-asset approach based on fundamental research to dynamically allocate across attractive segments of debt and equity.

Sharpe uses total volatility (standard deviation) which includes both upside and downside price movements, making it useful for comparing risk-adjusted returns across different assets.
