Overview

Investment Approach

The Fund aims to achieve a total return on your investment, through a combination of capital growth and income on the Fund’s assets, which reflects the return of the Bloomberg Barclays Euro Aggregate Corporate Index, the Fund’s benchmark index (Index). The Fund invests in the fixed income (FI) securities (such as bonds) which predominantly make up the Index (which comprises corporate bonds) whilst employing an environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) policy as described below. The Index measures the performance of investment grade FI securities which pay income according to a fixed rate of interest. These may be issued or guaranteed by corporate issuers in the industrial, utility and financial sectors and are traded on the Eurobond and Eurozone markets (regardless of the domicile of the issuer).
Important Information: Capital at Risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested.
