Sustainability Themed Fund |
For efficient portfolio management, currency hedging transactions may be made, i.e. investments will be hedged against the currency in which they have been issued. Moreover, the Subfund may make active currency investments, which may lead to a positive or negative exposure towards currencies different from the Subfund’s currency. To reduce any possibility of large currency deviations relative to the benchmark which heighten the level of risk, the fund may bring exposure into line with the currency weights of the benchmark by carrying out currency forward transactions.
Retention of the capital and exchange rate gains earned in the Subfunds.
The Fund employs systematic, bottom-up stock selection that combines proprietary Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) data and research throughout the investment process. ESG criteria for exclusions and theme-specific suitability are applied during universe construction. Moreover, an in-house Sustainability Investing (SI) research team integrates financially-material sector and company-specific sustainability analysis into investment cases. A dedicated thematic equity team incorporates SI research within fundamental analysis and stock valuations. Impact assessments of controversial incidences affecting portfolio holdings provide additional risk management. An active ownership and engagement team interacts directly with company management of fund holdings, offering additional channels for sustainable impact.
The RobecoSAM Smart Materials Fund provides investors with a future-oriented approach that goes beyond simply investing in natural resources. The strategy focuses on innovative materials that substitute traditional ones and process technologies that deliver efficiency gains in resource extraction, processing, and usage. These are the very mechanisms that have enabled humankind to cope with population and economic growth in a resource-constrained world over time. As we continue to deplete our stock of finite resources and environmental issues intensify, this is undoubtedly the investment approach of the future for the materials sector. The fund predominantly invests in materials, industrials and IT companies.
Risk management is fully integrated into the investment process to ensure that positions always meet predefined guidelines.
