The sub-fund’s investment objective is to provide an attractive rate of relative return, measured in Euro, by investing in securities that meet the Investment Manager’s Fixed Income Securities’ ESG criteria while integrating ESG characteristics by screening out sectors and issuers with low overall sustainability scores, and maintaining a lower carbon footprint than the corporate bond component of the Benchmark, taking into account the long‐term global warming objectives of the Paris Agreement. The sub-fund will invest mainly in issues of Euro denominated fixed income securities whether issued by corporations, government or government guaranteed issuers, supranational and other public entities and subject to applicable law, no more than 20% of its assets in (ABS/MBS).
