BlackRock Absolute Return Bond Fund

The Fund seeks to achieve a positive absolute return on your investment (i.e. an increase in the overall value of the Fund) over a period of 12 months regardless of market conditions. As such, the Fund will not be managed against any fixed income benchmark. The Fund will be managed with the aim of delivering absolute (more than zero) returns on a 12 month basis in any market conditions. However, an absolute return is not guaranteed over a 12 month or any period and the Fund may experience periods of negative return. The Fund’s capital is at risk. The Fund aims to gain investment exposure to fixed income (FI) securities, FI-related securities and money-market instruments (MMIs) issued by, or giving exposure to, companies, governments, government agencies and supranationals (i.e. the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development) worldwide.
