“We are maintaining our structural allocation of 30 per cent to absolute return managers, 42 per cent to equity managers and 28 per cent to fixed income managers. Within the absolute return portion, invested in IdB MM Zeus, some changes have taken place. As fundamental stock selection has become increasingly important we have shifted our long/ short allocation more towards managers with a solid fundamental process rather than ‘trading’ managers.” Amount (E) - Fund 30,000 - Insinger de Beaufort Multi-Manager Zeus (fund of hedge funds) 12,500 - ABN Amro Europe Bond 10,900 - AXA-Rosenberg US Equity Alpha Fund (US large cap core 10,900 - Wellington US Equity Research (US large cap core) 7800 - Pimco Total Return Fund (US fixed Income) 5400 - Pimco Global Bond Fund (global fixed Income) 3700 - Gartmore CSF Continental Europe (Cont’l European large cap) 3700 - Thames River European Fund (Cont’l European large cap core) 3200 - Barclays UK Equity Fund (UK core index-tracking) 2400 - Cambrian Fund (US small/mid cap) 1500 - Martin Currie Japan (large cap) 1500 - Polar Capital Japan Fund (midcap and growth equity) 1500 - Thames River Global Emerging Markets Fund 1400 - Scottish Value Management UK Growth 1300 - Aberdeen Asia Pacific 1200 - Ashmore EMLIP (sovereign high yield) 1100 - Pimco High Yield Fund (high yield corporates)
