Funds and prices

Overview

The actively managed fund invests primarily in euro-denominated bonds from issuers with high creditworthiness (classified as investment grade by the established rating agencies). The fund may also invest to a limited extent in non-euro, emerging market and high yield bonds. The portfolio has an average credit quality of investment grade.

The fund takes active positions in interest rates, credit and currencies using bonds and derivatives. The fund manager combines a mix of carefully selected issuers and bonds across a range of maturities and if desired in various currencies with the aim of exploiting attractive return opportunities while maintaining risk control.

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

This share class distributes a constant percentage share of the NAV, not a constant amount.

This share class is designed for investors who want to profit from performance opportunities on the financial markets and at the same time wish more stable distributions at a specific percentage level to cover recurring liquidity needs.

As the distributions are substantial, this share class is not designed for investors who want to build wealth. The latter may prefer the accumulating share class.

This share class must not be seen as an alternative to a savings account or fixed-interest paying investments.

The percentage distribution rate of this share class is unrelated to the interest or other income generated in the fund. The distribution is a percentage payment of the current amount of investment.

It is possible that the distributions result in an erosion of assets and a reduction of invested capital.

This share class may distribute capital as well as income. There are potential negative tax consequences for some investors in some jurisdictions. See risk section below .

Benefits

The flexible investment solution strives to achieve an attractive return over the medium term compared to the broader euro-denominated bond markets while focusing on prudent risk management.

The fund offers a dynamic strategy that uses bonds and derivatives to take active positions in interest rates, credit and to a limited extent also in currencies. Active management aims to achieve an optimal risk/return ratio.

Clients are offered access to a diversified euro-denominated bond portfolio whose rigorous investment approach centers on controlling downside risks through comprehensive research and risk management.

Risks

The fund may engage in relatively high-risk strategies in bond and currency markets, whereby both long and short positions may be held and derivatives may be used. The use of derivatives may result in additional risks (notably counterparty risk). Depending on the credit rating (credit quality), corporate bonds may exhibit a higher default risk than government bonds. The default risk of high yield and emerging market bonds is higher than that of corporate and government bonds of investment grade quality. Changes in interest rate levels, credit spreads and currencies may affect the value of the fund. Emerging markets are in an early stage of development, which is typically associated, for example, with pronounced price fluctuations and other specific risks such as lower market transparency, regulatory hurdles and corporate governance provisions, as well as political and social challenges. Emerging markets may have limited liquidity. Greater portfolio flexibility may increase the risk that portfolio management decisions negatively affect performance. Investments are subject to market fluctuations. Each fund exhibits specific risks, which may increase significantly under unusual market conditions. The aforementioned aspects require investors to have the corresponding risk appetite and risk capacity. The quarterly 2% distributing share classes may distribute capital as well as income. It is possible that the distributions result in an erosion of assets and a reduction of invested capital. There are potential negative tax consequences for some investors in some jurisdictions. Investors in some jurisdictions may incur a higher rate of tax on distributed capital than on any capital gains which are realised on disposal of fund shares. Some investors may therefore choose to invest in the accumulating (-acc) instead of the distributing (-dist) share classes. Investors may be taxed at a later point in time on income and capital arising on accumulating (-acc) share classes compared to distributing (-dist) share classes. Investors should seek their own tax advice.
