Information on the Investment Manager's remuneration policy

The Investment Manager's remuneration policy is designed to support its business strategy, objectives, values and long-term interests of its clients, including the Fund. The Investment Manager compensates its employees at a level sufficient to attract and retain suitably qualified and experienced staff.  Discretionary variable remuneration is aimed at rewarding employees based on the firm's overall financial performance.

  • achievement of objectives linked to the individual’s role;
  • financial performance of the Investment Manager;
  • the individual’s professional development; and
  • the individual’s compliance with internal policies and procedures, ethics culture and risk management framework.

The Investment Manager manages several funds and accounts and does not compensate its staff by reference to a particular fund or account. As such, the information on the proportion of the total remuneration attributable to the Fund or a method for calculating such a proportion of remuneration is not readily available.
