For Robeco BP US Premium Equities, ESG factors are qualitatively considered on an individual basis in the fundamental analysis but are not structurally integrated in the investment process.
Robeco BP US Premium Equities (GBP) selects stocks based on their investment merit. Its bottom-up stock selection process is guided by a disciplined value approach, intensive internal research and risk aversion. The fund's broad definition of value looks beyond traditional value characteristics such as low Price/Earnings and Price/Book, and includes analysis of long-term business fundamentals and short term business momentum. The fund's investment objective is to participate in rising markets and preserve capital in falling markets through diligent risk management.
Risk management is fully integrated in the investment process to ensure that positions always meet predefined guidelines.
2018 was the worst year for US equities since 2008, with extreme market volatility spiking in recent months as measured by the VIX Index. Investment sentiment shifted in the fourth quarter from price momentum leadership to a defensive bond proxy trade. The trade war, China, Fed policy and an inverted yield curve are just a handful of the concerns. Investor fear has created some excessive valuation discrepancies in the market which we will look to take advantage of in the coming months. As always, the fund will continue to exhibit a strong valuation edge, solid business fundamentals and improving business momentum.
