One to Watch - Sarasin Equisar Global Thematic
17 Jan 2012
The investment universe is a big place, so knowing about each and every fund is a near impossible feat to achieve. In this feature we give our thoughts on a fund to watch out for.
For some investors, the idea of investing in a fund that has a theme or a general vision of the opportunities that it wants to take advantage of is a big selling point. Traditional funds tend to focus on achieving a goal, like a defined percentage yield, with no preference on sector, or even following trends. Some will argue that this is the best way to invest and that flexibility to achieve aims and objective is important. Others argue that following a path linked to key trends is the future of investing, particularly given our global challenges.
The Sarasin Equisar Global Thematic fund is one such fund. The themes focused on by the fund will include those that will have a significant bearing on the World's social and demographic changes because they are the ones that are expected to withstand current and future economic backgrounds.
Themes like feeding the growing global population and the growing demand for Western products from the growing middle classes of emerging economies are central to the fund's objectives.
