Allan Gray - Stable Funds: A Cautious Fund For All Seasons

Loading player...
Guest – Radhesen Naidoo, joint head of Institutional Clients at Allan Gray

A 25-year period of investing is a long time. To put this into context, if we cast our minds back 25 years, it was the beginning of the new millennium, we had just filed away Y2K crisis preparation plans, and we still watched the SABC news for world updates. Mission: Impossible 2 was the highest-grossing film of 2000 and technology investments were the fashion – as they are today. The turn of the century also marked the launch of the Allan Gray Stable Fund.

Amid a turbulent and uncertain investment landscape, cautious investors often look to preserve capital while achieving above-inflation returns. Radhesen Naidoo, joint head of Institutional Clients at Allan Gray, joins Kaya Biz to discuss why a low-equity unit trust, like the Allan Gray Stable Fund, remains a sound solution for the cautious investor, especially within the current environment.
