According AmInvestment Bank Group chief executive officer and executive director (funds management) Datin Maznah Mahbob, the strategy determined the allocation exposure of the portfolio based on a
volatility management index called “Isovol Index” to a commodity index,
AmIslamic Bank Makmur Commodity Index. The purpose of Isovol Index is to cap the volatility of exposure to the AmIslamic Bank Makmur Commodity Index at 15%.With
this mechanism in place, the portfolio then manages the allocation of
exposure to the Isovol Index at between 20% and 200%.
Too bad there is no prospectus available online. You will have to get it from their representative office.
