Funds and prices

Overview

The actively managed fund invests primarily in investment grade corporate bonds denominated in EUR.

The fund aims to primarily exploit investment opportunities available from ratings sector allocation and from issuer selection while aiming for diversification of individual holdings.

ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Asset Management categorizes this fund as a Sustainability Focus fund. The fund promotes environmental and/or social characteristics.

The portfolio manager is not tied to the benchmark in terms of investment selection or weight.

This sub-fund promotes environmental and/or social characteristics but does not have a sustainable investment objective.

The exchange rate risk between EUR and CHF is largely hedged.

Benefits

Investors benefit from the return potential of corporate bonds, which is typically higher than government bonds.

Active portfolio management provides for careful assessment of macro-economic environment, investor sentiment, sector allocation and issuers' credit profile and development.

Integrating material sustainability criteria into credit research alongside financial analysis enhances our credit research and helps us make better informed investment decisions as well as providing a more holistic risk assessment.

The portfolio is subject to strict risk management and broadly diversified.

Risks

Default risk is higher for corporate bonds than government bonds despite the credit quality of the portfolio being investment grade. Changes in interest rates affect the value of the portfolio which requires corresponding risk tolerance and capacity. All investments are subject to market fluctuations. The strategy can invest in less liquid assets that may be difficult to sell in distressed markets. Every portfolio has specific risks, which may increase considerably in unusual market conditions and use derivatives, which may result in additional risks (particularly counterparty risk).
