AMP Capital NZ Short Duration Fund
Fund overview
The NZ Short Duration Fund (this Fund was formerly called the "AMP Capital NZ Enhanced Yield Fund") aims to deliver a
consistently good income using a combination of
interest rate and investment grade credit strategies. It
targets a shorter average duration (and maturity) than
traditional fixed income funds and its risk/return profile
should place it between a cash portfolio and a standard
fixed income portfolio.
Key features
- The use of fixed interest risk management tools means the Fund’s capital value is not as sensitive to changes in market interest rates as traditional longer term fixed income portfolios.
- The Fund specifically targets credit risk and interest rate risk as a source of return.
Please note a memorandum of amendments to the AMP Capital Investment Funds prospectus was registered on 1 December 2011, a copy of which can be found on the Companies Office website.
