Baring Asset Management has launched an Irish-domiciled multi-asset emerging market fund, investing across a range of countries and asset classes.

The Baring Dynamic Emerging Markets Fund will will invest in a host of emerging market assets, including: equities, bonds, currencies, commodities, derivatives, money market instruments and cash.

The fund will be managed by head of the multi-asset team Percival Stanion and Toby Nangle and will aim for emerging market equity-like returns with less risk, over the long-term. 
 
The asset allocation strategy will be informed by favourable demographics, currency appreciation, high productivity and growing domestic demand. 

Percival Stanion said, 'At Barings we have a strong belief that emerging markets offer some of the biggest potential investment returns.

'We also have almost a decade of experience running dynamic asset allocation products.'

He added, 'We believe that the Baring Dynamic Emerging Markets Fund will appeal to long-term investors seeking a lower volatility way of investing in these exciting high growth markets.'

The fund will have a minimum investment level of £2.500 (or the equivalent in dollars or euros), an initial charge of up to 5 per cent and an annual management charge of 1.5 per cent.
