The fund’s objectiveThe fund’s objective is to provide the unit holders with the best possible return based on the risk they have undertaken through an actively managed portfolio of equities in companies whose business is in or related to emerging markets.

The fund’s investment strategySKAGEN Kon-Tiki has an international investment mandate, but is required to invest at least 50 % of the fund’s assets in emerging markets, meaning countries or markets that are not included in the MSCI Developed Market Series. The fund’s aim is to find high quality companies at a low price, which are characterised by being undervalued, under-researched and unpopular. To reduce risk, the fund seeks to maintain a sensible geo-graphical and sector balance.

Who is the fund suitable for?SKAGEN Kon-Tiki is suitable for investors who wish to take part in value creation in em-erging markets.

The fund’s investments are normally not hedged with respect to currency; however, some of the fund’s investments may be hedged by drawing on the fund’s currency accounts.

Last updated

The fund’s objectiveThe fund’s objective is to provide the unit holders with the best possible return based on the risk they have undertaken through an actively managed portfolio of Norwegian and inter-national equities.

The fund’s investment strategySKAGEN Vekst has an international investment mandate, but is required to invest at least 50 percent of its capital in companies listed or traded on a Norwegian market or companies domiciled in Norway. The fund’s aim is to find high quality companies at a low price, which are characterised by being undervalued, under-researched and unpopular. The combination of a Norwegian and a global mandate allows the fund to take part in value creation in sectors that are not available on the Norwegian market.

Who is the fund suitable for?SKAGEN Vekst is suitable for investors who wish to balance Norwegian and global in-vestments while achieving diversification both geographically and across industries.

Performance commentsThe graphs on the left show the fund’s historical performance measured in EUR. All costs charged to the fund have been deducted. The fund’s benchmark index is compo-sed of the Oslo Børs hovedindeks (OSEBX) and the MSCI All Country World Daily Total Return Net $ in NOK, weighted equally and continuously rebalanced.

Historical returns are no guarantee for future returns. Future returns will depend, inter alia, on market developments, the fund manager’s skill, the fund’s risk profile and subscription and management fees. The return may become negative as a result of negative price developments.

Fund performance may vary considerably within one year. Gains or losses for indivi-dual unit holders will therefore depend on the exact timing of the subscription and redemption of units.

Fund price informationThe price of fund units, the net asset value (NAV) per unit, is calculated each Norwegi-an business day based on the market value of the fund’s portfolio. Price information is available at www.skagenfunds.com. The fund’s NAV per unit is calculated in NOK. The fund’s investments are normally not hedged with respect to currency; however, some of the fund’s investments may be hedged by drawing on the fund’s currency accounts.

DividendDividends received by the fund are automatically reinvested in the fund and are therefore included in the net asset value per unit.

Subscription and redemptionSubscription and redemption instructions may be sent to SKAGEN by post, fax or e-mail, or to our partners (see www.skagenfunds.com). The minimum subscription amount is EUR 150.

For subscriptions and redemptions in other currencies than NOK, the subscription/redemption price is calculated from the fund’s NAV in NOK using the currency ex-change rate used by the relevant fund on the valuation day.

The fund’s objectiveThe fund’s objective is to provide its unit holders with the best possible return based on the risk they have undertaken through an actively managed portfolio of credit-worthy international bonds.

The fund’s investment strategySKAGEN Tellus has a worldwide investment mandate. The fund mainly invests in government bonds. The fund’s aim is to find undervalued bonds with potential for good returns in the form of capital gains in addition to interest and the potential for currency appreciation.

The fund only invests in issues with a low credit risk, i.e. government bonds, government guaranteed loans, loans to financial institutions and bank deposits.

Who is the fund suitable for? SKAGEN Avkastning is a fixed-interest fund with low risk that is suitable for investors with a savings horizon of more than six months. SKAGEN Avkastning is a good alternative for investors who do not wish to commit resources to monitoring the interest markets and moving investments between interest bearing securities with different maturi ties.

Performance commentsThe graphs on the left show the fund’s historical performance measured in EUR. All costs charged to the fund have been deducted.

The fund’s benchmark is the Oslo Stock Exchange 3 year Government Bond Index (ST4X).

Historical returns are no guarantee for future returns. Future returns will depend, inter alia, on market developments, the fund manager’s skill, the fund’s risk profile and man-agement fees. The investment return may become negative as a result of negative price developments.

Fund performance may vary considerably within one year. Gains or losses for individual unit holders will therefore depend on the exact timing of the subscription and redemp-tion of units.

Fund price informationThe price of fund units, the net asset value (NAV) per unit, is calculated each Norwegian business day based on the market value of the fund’s portfolio. Price information is av-ail able on www.skagenfunds.com. The fund’s NAV per unit is calculated in NOK. The fund’s investments may be currency hedged by drawing on the fund’s currency accounts.

DistributionThe fund’s taxable income is separated from the fund and distributed to the unit holders annually in the form of the issue of new units. The unit price is reduced by an amount exactly equal to the value of the taxable income per unit.

Subscription and redemptionSubscription and redemption instructions may be sent to SKAGEN Funds by post, fax or e-mail or to our partners (see www.skagenfunds.com). The minimum subscription amount is EUR 150.

For subscriptions and redemptions in other currencies than NOK, the subscription/re-demption price is calculated from the fund’s NAV in NOK using the currency exchange rate used by the relevant fund on the valuation day.
