Investment Profile
The Sauren Ruhestandsfonds is an actively managed fund of funds with a moderate asset management approach. As a modern multi-asset strategy, it offers a broadly diversified portfolio with a moderate risk/return profile. With its focus, the fund is also aimed in particular at investors shortly before before retirement or in retirement.
Sauren Ruhestandsfonds invests irrespective of benchmarks mainly in other funds, including absolute return funds, bond funds, equity funds and multi-strategy funds. The broad diversification, covering not only traditional asset classes such as bonds and equities but also absolute return components, allows Sauren Ruhestandsfonds to be managed as a modern multi-asset strategy. You will find detailed information about the investment opportunities in the current valid prospectus.
The choice of funds follows Sauren’s established person-related investment philosophy "We invest in fund managers – not funds", with its focus on the skills of the fund managers. The environment for volume is also analysed in detail.
Analysis of the most promising fund managers draws on experience from over 8,000 meetings. Every year, meetings are held with around 300 fund managers to monitor the quality of the selected fund managers and generate a steady stream of new and attractive investment ideas.

Performance
Performance of Sauren Ruhestandsfonds A as at 20.06.2025
The Investor would like to buy shares for 1,000.-- € and due to a 4.00% front-end load the total payable amount rises to 1,040.-- €. The gross performance (BVI method) is based on the published redemption prices of the Fund of Funds, which includes all costs incurred at the fund level (e.g. management fee), the net performance also includes the front-end load. The front-end load is only payable at the day of investment and therefore reduces the performance in the first year. In the following years no front-end load is considered, as such the net performance is not displayed in the bar chart as it is equal to the gross performance. Additional costs may be incurred at the investor level (e.g. custody costs). If the front-end load were taken into account in the line chart the performance in the chart would be lower.
Due to its composition / the techniques used for its management, the fund is exposed to increased volatility; this means that unit prices may be subject to considerable upward and downward fluctuations, even within short periods of time.
* The chart shows the performance of a unit class launched in 2016 since 11 December 2023. The performance of the fund was achieved before 11 December 2023 under circumstances that are no longer valid: In particular, the investment objectives were changed on 11 December 2023. The fund was renamed ‘Sauren Ruhestandsfonds’ on 27 December 2024.
