C000134117 Investment Objective and Strategy
Invesco Global Market Neutral Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Aim Investment Funds (invesco Investment Funds).
Investment objective
The Fund seeks to provide a positive return over a full market cycle from a broadly diversified portfolio of stocks while seeking to limit exposure to the general risks associated with stock market investing.
Principal investment strategy
Under normal market conditions, the Fund employs a market neutral strategy designed to produce an investment portfolio that is neutral with respect to general global stock market risk. The Fund implements this strategy by seeking to maintain long and short positions with approximately equal value in different investments within the same countries, industries and market sectors, which is intended to limit the effect of general global stock market movements on the Funds investment portfolio. The Fund seeks to generate returns independent of the direction of the global stock market by buying investments (long positions) with equity exposure that it believes are undervalued and selling short investments (short positions) with equity exposure that it believes are overvalued. The Funds ability to generate positive returns will therefore depend on whether, in a rising market, the Funds long positions increase in value more than the securities underlying the Funds short positions and, in a declining market, whether the securities underlying the Funds short positions decrease in value more than the Funds long positions.
The Funds equity exposure will generally be achieved through investments in individual stocks and in derivative instruments. The principal types of equity securities in which the Fund invests are common and preferred stock. A long derivative position involves the Fund buying a derivative with the anticipation of a price increase of the underlying asset and a short derivative position involves the Fund writing (selling) a derivative with the anticipation of a price decrease of the underlying asset. The Funds short positions are achieved primarily through investments in derivative instruments. The Fund seeks to achieve a return that exceeds the Funds benchmark, the FTSE US 3-Month Treasury Bill Index, over a full market cycle. As a result of its market neutral strategy, the Fund does not expect that its returns will be closely correlated with the returns (positive or negative) of the particular stock markets in which the Fund invests.
Under normal circumstances, the Fund will provide exposure to investments that are economically tied to at least three different countries, including the U.S. Under normal circumstances, at least 40% of the Funds net assets will provide exposure to investments that are economically tied to countries other than the U.S. The Fund invests primarily in securities and other investments that have exposure to large-capitalization issuers; however, the Fund may also invest in securities and other investments that have exposure to small and mid-capitalization issuers. The Funds use of derivatives is expected to be significant and greater than most mutual funds. The derivatives in which the Fund will principally invest will include but are not limited to equity-related futures contracts, swap agreements, such as total return swaps, and forward foreign currency contracts.
Futures contracts and swap contracts will be used to gain or limit equity market exposure in the jurisdictions in which the Fund invests. Forward foreign currency contracts are used to protect against uncertainty in the level of future currency exchange rates or to gain or modify exposure to a particular currency. The Fund will seek to achieve its investment objective through the security selection process employed by the Funds portfolio managers whereby, using a proprietary multi-factor model, the portfolio managers evaluate fundamental and behavioral factors to forecast individual security returns and risk and rank these securities based on their attractiveness relative to their industry and country peers. This process includes evaluating each security in the investment universe based on its momentum, quality and value.
Using proprietary portfolio construction and risk management tools, the portfolio managers incorporate these individual security forecasts to construct what they believe is an optimal portfolio comprised of long positions that forecast the highest returns for a specified level of risk and short positions that forecast the lowest returns for a specified level of risk, while attempting to limit the effect of market movements on the Funds investment portfolio. The portfolio managers do not consider the composition of the Funds benchmark when constructing the portfolio. The Funds portfolio managers consider selling a security or other investment, or covering a short position, (1) for risk control purposes, (2) when its forecasted return deteriorates for long positions or when its forecasted return improves for short positions, or (3) when it otherwise no longer responds to Invesco Advisers, Inc.s (Invesco or the Adviser) proprietary model.
