The Ignis Absolute Return Government Bond Fund was launched on 31 March 2011
with the
objective of delivering positive returns in all market conditions within a
carefully controlled
risk budget. Through a volatile period in which the average absolute return
fund struggled,
the fund, managed using an innovative forward rates approach, delivered steady
gains.
