Strategy
Investment Objective
Our approach seeks to provide a solution to investing in complex and diverse emerging markets by combining high-conviction ideas across sovereign, corporate, and local currency bonds. We pursue emerging market-like returns, with a lower volatility profile, achieved via broader diversification and effective liquidity, downside and volatility management. The portfolio offers exposure across the broad emerging markets universe and, being benchmark-agnostic, it has the latitude to invest across the full EM opportunity set. The promotion of environmental and/or social characteristics is achieved through the fund's commitment to maintain at least 50% of the value of its portfolio invested in issuers and/or securities that are rated as ‘Green’ by the T. Rowe Price proprietary Responsible Investor Indicator Model (RIIM). 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.
Investment Approach
- Actively managed
- Seeks total return over the investment cycle while managing volatility and drawdowns
- Dynamically invests across EM asset classes, aiming to realize the full potential of our research platform's high conviction ideas across the entire EM fixed income universe
- Our goal is to capture the upside potential within EM fixed income while reducing drawdowns by actively managing the volatility profile of the portfolio
- The portfolio seeks to manage downside risks through thoughtful diversification, tactical hedges, and robust risk controls
- We emphasize collaboration and seek ideas from various perspectives, encouraging thoughtful debate that underpins our investment ideas
- We integrate deep fundamental research with robust communication across geographies, teams and asset classes to formulate our convictions
- Active risk and liquidity management are incorporated at both the portfolio and position level
- Although the fund does not have sustainable investment as an objective, the promotion of environmental and/or social characteristics is achieved through the fund’s commitment to maintain at least 50% of the value of its portfolio invested in issuers and/or securities that are rated as ‘Green’ by the T. Rowe Price proprietary Responsible Investor Indicator Model (RIIM). In addition to the E/S characteristics promoted, the fund also applies the investment manager’s proprietary responsible screen (the T. Rowe Price Responsible Exclusion List).
