The investment in debt securities is also subject to credit/counterparty risk, interest rate risk, downgrading risk, credit rating risk, risk associated with high yield debt securities which are generally rated below investment grade or unrated, risk associated with investments in debt instruments with loss-absorption features and valuation risk.

Fund Summary
We use proprietary, fundamental credit research to focus on identifying corporate bonds that offer attractive yields in relation to their credit fundamentals. We integrate financial, technical, legal and qualitative research with relative value analysis. Risk management is integral, with limits on both duration and yield curve exposures. 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.
