Our unit trust funds
Our South African unit trusts
Allan Gray Equity Fund
The Equity Fund’s goal is to create long-term wealth for investors by investing in shares that offer the potential for higher returns over time. We aim to beat the average performance of similar unit trusts without taking any more risk. However, the unit trust’s returns are likely to fluctuate significantly over the short to medium term, making it suitable for investors with a very long time to invest.
Allan Gray Balanced Fund
The goal of the Balanced Fund is to create steady, long-term wealth for investors by balancing income generation, capital growth and risk of loss using a mixed selection of assets. We aim to beat the average performance of similar unit trusts without taking any more risk.

The Stable Fund’s goal is to offer investment stability and preserve investor’s capital over any two-year period. The unit trust aims to deliver return above inflation over the long term and is measured against the daily interest rate supplied by FirstRand Bank Limited plus 2%.
