Investment Objectives
The Fund’s investment objective is to provide high income and preservation of capital by investing primarily in debt instruments of issuers anywhere in the world while following a sustainable investment approach.
Investment Strategy
Generally, the Fund will diversify its investments by credit rating, duration, type of instrument, sector and country; however, there is no minimum or maximum amount of the Fund’s assets that may be invested in: investment-grade debt instruments; non-investment-grade debt instruments; or unrated debt instruments. The Fund will not invest more than 5% of its assets in any single security of a non-sovereign issuer. The Fund may invest in Mainland China through the Bond Connect or directly.
