SANLAM INDEX TRUST


Type of fund

General equity fund suitable for monthly investors with a reasonable knowledge of shares and the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.

It has a well-balanced portfolio of blue-chip shares which does not necessarily coincide exactly with those in the All Share Index.

The composition and weight of the sectors making up the All Share Index is, however, closely resembled. The aim is sustained long-term growth in both capital and income.

A fully invested policy with a low percentage of liquid assets are consistently followed, which minimises the interest income and tax liability.
