|---|---|---|
Currency policy
Except for the active currency positions, currency risks are hedged to the base currency of the fund (EUR).
Dividend policy
All income earned will be accumulated and not be distributed as dividend. Therefore the entire return is reflected in the share price development.
ESG Integration policy
The fund systematically incorporates sustainability in the investment process via exclusions, ESG integration, ESG and environmental footprint targets, as well as engagement. The fund does not invest in companies that are in breach of international norms or where its activities have been deemed detrimental to society following Robeco's exclusion policy. Financially material ESG factors are integrated in the portfolio construction to ensure the ESG score per asset class is better than that of the reference index. In addition, the environmental footprint of the asset class is made lower than that of the benchmark by restricting the GHG emissions, water use and waste generation. In addition, where a company is flagged for breaching international standards in the ongoing monitoring, the issuer will become subject to engagement.
