Currency policy
All currency risks are hedged.
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
ESG analysis is systematically incorporated in the highly disciplined investment process by using RobecoSAM Corporate Sustainability Assessment and RobecoSAM Country Sustainability Ranking. In the portfolio construction we ensure that more sustainable countries and companies are more likely to be included in the portfolio and that the ESG profile of the fund is more sustainable than that of the benchmark. In addition, our credit analysts use external sources to identify additional ESG risks, e.g. corporate governance issues or companies that have major litigation or regulatory risks. If these ESG risks may result in a material financial impact, we will not invest in these companies.
Investment policy
Robeco QI Global Multi-Factor Bonds aims to provide long-term capital growth by investing systematically in bonds issued by governments, agencies and corporates. The fund uses the low-risk, quality, value, momentum and size factors to select the most attractive bonds. The disciplined investment process aims to keep the credit and foreign exchange risk of the bond portfolio similar to that of the benchmark, but with the aim to generate higher returns due its exposures to factors. The overall duration of the bond portfolio can be increased or decreased, depending on a systematic assessment of the bond market outlook. The Barclays Global Aggregate Index (hedged into EUR) is used as the benchmark for the fund. The fund aims to outperform this benchmark regardless of the specific market environment. It can therefore serve as a comprehensive fixed income solution for any investment portfolio. Furthermore, the highly systematic nature of Robeco QI Global Multi-Factor Bonds means it can act as a style diversifier within existing, fundamentally-managed fixed income allocations.
Risk policy
The fund aims to have its credit and currency exposure in line with that of the benchmark. The strategy can have moderate tracking error versus the benchmark. The portfolio volatility is restricted by a predefined threshold. The portfolio will make use of derivatives, which add to the leverage of the portfolio. The expected level of gross leverage is stated in the prospectus.
