Fund Aims
Objective: The investment strategy of the fund is to purchase units in the M&G Gilt & Fixed Interest Income Fund - the underlying fund.
Underlying Fund Objective: The fund aims to provide income and capital growth. At least 70% of the fund is invested in short, medium or long-dated gilts according to the fund manager’s view at any given moment of the likely course of interest rates and trend of the gilt market. The fund’s exposure to gilts may be gained through the use of derivatives. Derivatives may also be used for efficient portfolio management. The fund may also invest in collective investment schemes, other transferable securities, other debt instruments, cash, near cash, other money market securities, warrants and other derivative instruments.

Important Information
Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).
Source of portfolio data: Broadridge. Source of performance data: FE fundinfo. We can’t predict the future. Past performance isn’t a guide to future performance. The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of product charges, or any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now. Fund performance is based upon the movement of the daily price and is shown as total return in GBP with gross income reinvested. The value of your investment can go down as well as up so you might get back less than you put in.
