Aegon Sterling Corporate Bond

This is an ideal fund for those seeking income or lower risk growth and indeed any client looking as part of a balanced portfolio.

This fund invests predominately in UK investment grade corporate bonds but also has exposure to both gilts and high yield corporate bonds giving an overall balanced risk profile. It is aimed at providing income whilst avoiding capital erosion.

The investment objective is to achieve a high level of income by investing in a portfolio consisting mainly of UK fixed interest bonds and preference shares, with some investment also in Government and other public securities, convertibles and other permitted Instruments. Foreign fixed interest investments and Eurobonds or overseas government bonds may also be used when the Authorised Corporate Director (ACD) considers that these investments will generate the requisite yield.
