Fund Aims
The European High Yield Bond Portfolio seeks to achieve a total return from income and capital appreciation by investing principally in Euro or Sterling denominated fixed income securities that are rated below Investment Grade. The Portfolio will principally invest in fixed income securities issued by companies domiciled in Europe, or with significant European operations. The Portfolio may invest in CoCos (not exceeding 10% of the Portfolio’s Net Asset Value). The Portfolio may use financial derivative instruments for hedging purposes. Typically, where securities are denominated in a currency other than Euro it is intended that they will typically be hedged back into Euro. The weighted average credit rating is expected to be BB- as rated by S&P or Fitch or the Moody’s equivalent of Ba3.
