OFST010500 – Is Fund Of Funds

Is the fund a fund of funds? A Fund of Funds (FoF) is defined in most jurisdictions as a collective investment scheme whose primary investment strategy is to acquire units or shares of other funds, rather than investing mainly in direct securities or assets? “Primarily” is usually defined as more than 50% of its assets.

Note that many jurisdictions don’t have a legal definition of a fund of funds. US-based fund of funds are specified further in SEC Rule 12d1-4. For further information, go to https://www.sec.gov/investment/secg-fund-of-funds.
