Investment policy of the Fund


The primary aspect by forming the composition of the fund is to optimise the aggregate exposure of the securities. Besides keeping and eye on the macro economical background, the fund manager uses fundamental analyses to build a well-balanced long-term equity investment portfolio. The fund manager applies widespread diversification to minimize the risk of the portfolio, and periodically also uses derivative instruments to hedge. The AEGON Domestic Equity Fund changed its name at the end of December 2006 to AEGON Central European Equity Fund. The fund uses the new investment policy form 8 January 2007.  From 1998 to 2006 the Fund invested only in Hungarian stocks, and from 2007 it started investing in CEE stocks. The reason of the change was the falling number of liquid Hungarian stocks due mergers and delistings. Investing in CEE stock also lowers the risk of the portfolio. After managing one of the best performing domestic equity fund, we hope that we will reach similar outstanding performance in the future by investing in the CEE market. Certainly the fund changed its benchmark also from 80% RAX + 20% RMAX to 90% CECEXEUR Index + 10% ZMAX Index.
