AllianzGI RCM Global Twin-Focus Fund

Twin focus—downside protection and regular sustainable payout! Rated 4-stars by Mercer Investment Consulting*.

Next Steps :

Twin Focus—Protection and Payout!

The Fund uses a unique strategy in managing the equity portfolio. This strategy consists of the simultaneous purchase of protective put options and the writing of call options. This allows investors who are willing to give up some of the equity market upside, to enjoy the twin benefits of regular sustainable payout and downside protection.

Focus on PAYOUT

The Fund will be invested in global blue chip stocks to participate in stock appreciation and earn stock dividends.

Call options will be sold to generate additional yield continuously from option premiums earned.

Option premiums from the selling of call options provide an income pool from which the Fund intends to distribute a payout of 6.88% per annum+.

Focus on PROTECTION

The Fund buys put options to limit possible losses to about 10% p.a.

The protective put option strategy and active currency management employed by the Fund seeks to limit the downside risk during significant market decline.

This Fund Is Suitable For

Investors who want to:

Receive regular and sustainable attractive payouts (currently, the Manager intends to distribute 6.88% per annum, payable quarterly);
Participate in upside opportunities of global stocks but want to limit downside risk;
Give up some of the equity market upside in return for the regular sustainable payouts and downside protection.

Allianz Global Investors (AllianzGI)

The AllianzGI Global High Payout Fund will be managed by Allianz Global Investors, one of the few asset managers globally with the experience in the Fund's unique strategy of high dividend stock investments coupled with option selling. AllianzGI is managing and advising approximately USD 4 billion of assets as at 31 Oct 2005 under this investment strategy in the US and Europe.
