Edmond de Rothschild Fund - Bond Allocation R USD H

Strategie

In view of its ESG strategy, the Product promotes environmental characteristics but does not invest in environmentally sustainable economic activities. The investments underlying this financial product do not take into account the EU criteria for environmentally sustainable economic activities, in the context of the Taxonomy Regulation. The investment approach of the Product combines both top-down and bottom-up factors. As such the Product benefits from the complementary skills of the Investment Manager, combining relevant macroeconomic analysis with specific bond picking skills in each fixed income market segment. The Product may hold up to 100% of its net assets in securities issued in currencies other than the euro. The currency risk resulting from these investments will be systematically hedged. The Product may invest up to 20% of its net assets in onshore RMB (CNY) denominated debt securities. Onshore RMB denominated debt securities (CNY) may include securities traded both directly on the Chinese interbank bond market (CIBM) and PRC Stock Exchanges. These investments will be made through the Bond Connect program.

Ziel

The Investment Manager will systematically include environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in their financial analysis in order to select the portfolio's securities. At least 90% of debt securities and money market instruments or those issued by "emerging" countries will have an ESG rating within the portfolio. At the end of this process, the Product will have an ESG rating that is greater than that of its investment universe. Furthermore, the security selection process also includes a negative filter to exclude companies that contribute to the production of controversial weapons in compliance with international conventions in this area as well as companies that are exposed to activities related to thermal coal or tobacco in accordance with the exclusion policy of Edmond de Rothschild Group, which is available on its website: https://www.edmond-de-rothschild.com/en/Pages/Responsible-investment.aspx. The Product classifies as Article 8(1) SFDR as it promotes a combination of ESG characteristics, although no reference benchmark has been designated for the purpose of attaining the environmental or social characteristics.
