The Fund seeks to maximise total return in a manner consistent with the principles of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) focused investing. The Fund invests at least 70% of its total assets in fixed income transferable securities issued by governments and government agencies of, and companies domiciled in, or exercising the predominant part of their economic activity in, emerging markets, denominated in both emerging market and non-emerging market currencies, and included within the J.P. Morgan ESG Blended Emerging Market Bond Index (Sovereign). The Index provides the investment universe for at least 70% of the Fund’s total assets. The asset allocation of the Fund is intended to be flexible and the Fund will maintain the ability to switch exposure between currencies and issuers as market conditions and other factors dictate.
