This actively managed fund offers exposure to a diversified portfolio of Euro-denominated, investment-grade corporate bonds. The primary objective is to deliver a total return that exceeds its benchmark, the Bloomberg Euro-Aggregate: Corporates Index, over a full market cycle while maintaining a similar level of volatility. By utilizing an active approach, the portfolio managers have the flexibility to navigate changing market conditions and interest rate environments, a distinct advantage over passive, index-tracking strategies. The fund aims to generate returns through a combination of stable income from bond coupons and potential capital appreciation.
The investment process is rooted in a combination of top-down macroeconomic analysis and intensive, bottom-up credit research. This dual-pronged approach allows the managers to position the portfolio based on their outlook for the economy and interest rates, while also identifying individual securities that they believe are undervalued by the market. The team conducts deep fundamental analysis on issuers to assess creditworthiness and identify potential risks and opportunities across various sectors, maturities, and credit quality tiers within the investment-grade spectrum. This disciplined security selection is central to the fund's strategy of constructing a robust portfolio designed for consistent performance.
This product is designed for investors seeking a core holding in the European corporate debt market who value the potential for outperformance through expert security selection. It may be suitable for those looking for a regular income stream and a degree of capital preservation over the medium to long term. As an investment in corporate debt, it carries credit risk—the risk that a bond issuer may default—and interest rate risk, where bond prices may fall as interest rates rise. The fund serves as a foundational block for investors aiming to diversify their portfolios with actively managed, high-quality European fixed income.
