For outcomes shaped by predictability
Atlantic House Total Return Fund
The ‘engine room’ of the Atlantic House Total Return Fund (c.50% of the portfolio) is invested in defined return strategies.
Typically formed by combining derivative strategies with an investment in sovereign bonds, the Fund’s defined return strategies seek to deliver a pre-determined rate of equity-like return (currently around 8% annualised p.a.) over a specified period of time.
For the pre-determined returns not to be met, one or more of the developed market indices to which the investments are linked would need to fall significantly (by a third or more) and not recover by the time the investment matures.
This means the Fund has the potential to deliver returns in a range of positive, flat or negative market scenarios over time. Of course, like equities, these investments can fall in value but unlike equities, the circumstances and risk of loss is clearly defined at the outset.
With a pre-determined, fixed level of return and a quantifiable level of risk, it is therefore possible to achieve a predictable outcome over the long term, providing greater clarity for investors.
The Fund’s innovative volatility overlay, aims to further reduce the risk of drawdowns in the Fund during significant market stress.
This combination of Fund investments helps to reduce the overall risk of the Fund to around half that of global equities.
Atlantic House has a long history of managing defined return investments. We believe the transparency and predictability offered by liquid, derivative-based investment strategies, when blended with traditional assets, can help investors plan and manage their portfolios more effectively to achieve more predictable, long-term outcomes. We use the same approach in our flagship Defined Returns Fund, which launched in 2013 and as at 30 November 2021 has an AUM of over £1.5billion.

Key Risks

Calculations do not consider credit spread movements of the issuers of the securities. The mark to market of the securities and therefore the NAV of the Fund will decrease as credit spreads widen and vice versa if spreads narrow.
The price of shares and income from them can go down as well as up and past performance is not a guide to future performance. Investors may not get back the full amount originally invested.
The Fund invests in derivatives for investment purposes, for efficient portfolio management and/ or to protect against exchange risks. Derivatives are highly sensitive to changes in the value of the asset from which their value is derived. A small movement in the value of the underlying asset can cause a large movement in the value of the derivative. This can increase the sizes of losses and gains, causing the value of a derivative investment to fluctuate and the Fund could lose more than the amount invested. The Fund can invest in high quality government and corporate bonds. All bonds will be rated at least A- by Standard and Poors at outset. If any of the bonds the Fund owns suffer credit events the performance of the Fund could be adversely affected.
A decision may be taken at any time to terminate the arrangements for the marketing of the Fund in any jurisdiction in which it is currently being marketed. Shareholders in affected EEA Member State will be notified of any decision marketing arrangements in advance and will be provided the opportunity to redeem their shareholding in the Company free of any charges or deductions for at least 30 working days from the date of such notification.
