Truly active

We believe active decision-making is essential in fixed income. Our approach combines credit research and sustainability analysis to determine the holdings that earn a place in the portfolio.

A robust sustainability framework

Combining ESG integration, negative screening, positive alignment and stewardship. This ensures every investment in the fund is aligned with one of our eight sustainable development themes.

While bonds can help reduce the overall risk of a portfolio, they are not risk free. Changes in interest rates, inflation and market conditions can affect the value of investments and the income they generate. Investors may get back less than they originally invested.
