The fund is split, like any well-managed portfolio, between equities, bonds, property, and numerous other asset classes, with stocks making up the biggest proportion of the fund - 59.6%.

Earlier in August, the fund released its second quarter report detailing the performance of all its holdings and how it did overall. Buried within the report were details of the companies in which the investment fund holds the biggest stakes.

The stocks range from three of the world's biggest tech giants, to established value stocks, all the way to Swiss pharmaceutical companies.

The holdings reported are as of June 30, the end of Q2 this year. Check out the list below.
