Investment objective

This bond fund aims to outperform its benchmark over a three-year rolling period and seeks to promote environmental or social practices, while respecting risk diversification.


Key features

The fund invests across emerging markets mainly in government, quasi-sovereign, and corporate bonds of diverse qualities with different maturities in various hard currencies from issuers that seek to promote environmental or social practices.


Approach

The experienced specialist team defines the investment universe using a proprietary sustainability model which combines a quantitative screening based on in-house and third-party provider data with a qualitative analysis of major sustainability risks. The team focuses on optimizing the level of spread for a given level of risk. Based on in-depth research and using a proprietary valuation model, the team continuously compares the levels of remuneration potential available across issuer qualities, countries, interest rates, currencies, and maturities within the investment universe to identify the most rewarding opportunities, which may be contrarian to mainstream views. To seize them, the team flexibly adapts the portfolio while keeping credit, interest rate and currency risks in check.
