INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The objective of the Fund is to achieve capital appreciation and income generation by providing its investors an opportunity to invest in the listed securities of the GCC economies that are compliant to Shariah principles.

The Fund will follow a dynamic allocation policy with investments spread across a diversified range of sectors across GCC.

INVESTMENT RATIONALE

Over the past three decades, GCC economies have witnessed an unprecedented economic transformation which had a positive impact on the socio economic factors. The GCC region is blessed with enormous oil and gas reserves and plays an important role in the world as a largest producer and exporter of petroleum products. Hydrocarbon exploration and production forms the backbone of growth in these economies. GCC economies lay emphasis on diverting their annual budgetary spends towards education, housing and development of the industrial sector. The GCC countries have continued to implement policy reforms to accelerate non-oil growth as a measure to reduce exposure to volatility in oil price and create employment opportunities for a rapidly increasing population. The GCC countries provide investors with an opportunity to benefit from the growing economies; ably supported by strong demographics, diversification to non oil sectors and healthy financial reserves.

The securities that are in compliance with Shariah principles have outperformed the broader market consistently over a period of time with lower volatility. In the past, Shariah compliant equities and asset classes have been perceived as an investment vehicle only for the growing class of people who practice Islam in specific countries. However, this viewpoint is fast changing with Shariah compliant assets perceived as an investment vehicle of choice with a diverse set of investors with a view of growth potential and robust business framework.

This makes an attractive investment case not only for investors focused on Islamic products but also for conventional investors (both institutions & individuals) who are seeking capital appreciation with lower risk. FUND’S MANAGEMENT BODY MEMBERS

The Fund shall be managed and supervised by the Fund’s Management Body in accordance with the provisions of the articles of association. There shall be seven members in the Fund’s Management Body, including the Chairman and Vice Chairman.
