The Foord International Feeder Fund aims to outperform world equity indices, whilst having significantly less volatility. The fund is a rand denominated offshore fund and thus investors may only invest and withdraw rands, even though the fund invests in global assets. The Foord International Feeder Fund allows South African investors to expand their opportunity sets to include offshore exposure and to hedge against rand depreciation.
