FACTSHEET
KID
30-Sep-2024 - Mike Della Vedova, Co-Portfolio Manager,
We believe fundamental conditions in the high yield market and its underlying credit quality remain solid. Historically when yields have reached current levels, we have seen strong forward returns in the asset class, which bodes well for its medium-term performance. However, we expect the default rate to normalise soon given the challenging macroeconomic environment.

Overview
Strategy
Fund Summary
The investment approach is to seek to identify improving issuers using factors such as credit statistics, free cash flow generation, strategic value of company, security structure, and quality of the management team. The manager uses tactical regional allocation to exploit diverse market environments and credit cycles and to profit from dislocations and volatility between regions. The promotion of environmental and/or social characteristics is achieved through the fund's commitment to maintain at least 10% of the value of its portfolio invested in Sustainable Investments, as defined by the SFDR. Additionally, we apply a proprietary responsible screen (exclusion list). The manager is not constrained by the fund’s benchmark, which is used for performance comparison purposes only.
Performance - Net of Fees

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
30-Sep-2024 - Mike Della Vedova, Co-Portfolio Manager,
High yield bonds advanced in September as the US Federal Reserve began easing monetary policy for the first time in four years. Company-specific headlines contributed to elevated trade volumes, as did the fifth consecutive month of positive flows to the asset class, which provided technical support and helped the market absorb the heavy slate of issuance. Within the portfolio, our overweight allocation in the CCC rating tier, which outpaced higher qualities by a wide margin amid investors’ increased appetites for risk, contributed to relative performance. Credit selection in the cable operators and utilities segments added further value. Conversely, security selection among BB rated bonds held back relative gains. Credit selection and our overweight allocation in the automotive industry dragged, as did selection in the other telecommunications segment.
31-Dec-2023 - Mike Della Vedova, Co-Portfolio Manager,
We are overweight cable operators relative to the market index. These issuers generally exhibit durable fundamentals due to subscription-based, recurring-revenue business models and we believe several large capital structures are poised to achieve an investment-grade credit rating in the medium term. In addition, we are overweight select segments such as broadcasting and entertainment and leisure, which we think could continue to benefit from resilient private balance sheets and a shift in consumer behaviour that has favoured experiences over goods and products.

Benchmark: Investors may use the benchmark to compare the fund’s performance. The benchmark has been selected because it is similar to the investment universe used by the investment manager and therefore acts as an appropriate comparator.
