AEGON Atticus Alfa Derivative Fund


General information

Investment policy of the Fund


The AEGON Alfa is one of the new funds of the Fund Management Company. The Fund is able to invest into practically "everything", according to the anticipation of the Fund Manager. The Fund invests mainly into equities, equity indexes, currency positions, but it can invest in commodity markets as well. This total return derivative fund represents more risk that our other total return fund, the Moneymaxx, since it can use double leverage by investing into derivatives and futures. This means that the value of the positions of the Fund can be the double of its capital resources. Should the price of the fund's assets change by 1% than it is possible that the asset of the fund changes by 2%. Leverage has the potential to enlarge profits or losses by the same magnitude. The greater the amount of leverage on capital you apply, the higher the risk that you will assume. The Fund is allowed to take long positions and uncovered short positions as well. According to this the Fund can bet on a bullish or on a bearish market situation too. The investment policy of the Fund is very similar to the so called global "macro hedge fund" which was made famous by George Soros's Quantum Fund.
