Formerly Sanlam Global Artificial Intelligence.
This fund ‘eats its own cooking’ using an artificial intelligence (AI) system to help find companies whose business models are aligned to benefit from this growing theme. The fund is unconstrained in that it can invest in businesses of almost any size and in more than just technology stalwarts; around half of the portfolio can be found in the healthcare and consumer-related sectors.

The combination of using an AI system to help pick stocks benefiting from similar technology is a stand out feature of the fund. Alongside a differentiated approach to looking at stocks, whereby the managers look for companies that incorporate AI, rather than just making it, means this fund is a more diversified play on a theme growing in popularity.
