This actively managed fund offers exposure to the dynamic growth potential of emerging markets, coupled with a robust sustainability framework. The primary objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of stocks from companies located in emerging economies. The strategy is designed for investors who seek not only financial returns but also positive environmental and social outcomes, as it operates under Article 8 of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR). The portfolio is constructed to align with specific sustainability characteristics, providing a responsible way to access these high-growth regions.

The investment process is driven by a sophisticated quantitative model that systematically analyzes and selects stocks. This proprietary model ranks companies based on a combination of proven factors: attractive valuation, strong quality metrics (such as profitability and solid balance sheets), and positive momentum signals. Crucially, this quantitative approach is fully integrated with comprehensive sustainability criteria. The fund applies a strict exclusion policy for controversial sectors and practices while also incorporating ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) scores into the stock selection process. This dual focus aims to build a portfolio with a significantly better ESG profile and a lower environmental footprint compared to the broader emerging market universe.

By combining a factor-based quantitative strategy with a deep commitment to sustainability, the fund provides a differentiated approach to emerging market investing. It is suitable for individuals looking for a core holding that captures the upside of developing economies while actively managing downside risks and adhering to principles of responsible investment. The disciplined, model-driven methodology removes emotional bias from investment decisions, aiming for consistent performance and a tangible, positive impact.
