Market development
{{'fund.detail.general.perDate' | labelize:[ fundDate(fund.fundInvestmentExplanations.date,'llll') ]}}The Global Aggregate Corporate Bond Index returned +0.37% (hedged in euro) as credit spreads tightened and risk free rates moved higher. The 10-year US Treasury yield increased 9 basis points to 2.5%, and the German 10-year yield increased 8 basis points to 0.01%. The credit spread on the Global Corporate Bond Index decreased 10 bps to 1.14%. Markets remained strong in April. However, there was more dispersion between them. As economic data is improving in Asia and the US, investors believe the credit cycle will last a bit longer. The improvements are not yet broad based and risks to the downside remain present. As negotiations between the US and China progress, markets are getting more comfortable a trade deal will materialize. The Global Corporate Bond Index delivered a positive excess return of +0.93% versus government bonds. US corporate bonds underperformed European corporate bonds with excess returns of +0.92% and +1.03% respectively. High yield (+1.41%) outperformed and emerging market credits (+0.75%) underperformed global investment grade markets.

Investment policy
RobecoSAM Global SDG Credits invests in a diversified portfolio of global investment grade corporate bonds. Core of the portfolio is invested in investment grade credits, complemented by best opportunities in High Yield and Emerging Markets The selection of these bonds is based on fundamental analysis. The fund aims to contribute to realizing the UN SDG goals by assessing the SDG score of all companies in the universe. The fund does not invest in companies that do not contribute to these goals. The investment philosophy is based on managing a solid diversified portfolio with a long term view. Companies that don't contribute to the realization of the SDG Goals as set by the UN are excluded from the universe. Top-down beta positioning is based on the outcome of our credit quarterly outlook meeting, which defines the current credit environment and where we are in the credit cycle. This analysis is based on a fundamental, valuation and technical perspective. Bottom-up issuer research is executed by our credit analysts, who undertake the fundamental analysis. Analyst research reports are discussed in approx. 500 credit committees per year. The portfolio managers are responsible for the portfolio construction. A proprietary developed risk management approach avoids high risk concentration in the portfolio. As the investment process is well-structured and proven over time, it contributes to repeatable performance delivery.
Risk policy
Risk management is fully embedded in the investment process to ensure that positions always meet predefined guidelines.
Expectation of fund manager
{{'fund.detail.general.perDate' | labelize:[ fundDate(fund.fundFacts.date,'llll') ]}}Macro data in Europe and Asia have clearly bottomed. European data is lagging, which cannot be dissociated from the fact that Europe’s export-driven economy is dependent on the well-being of China and the US. The data is not improving across the board but on aggregate it looks better. Corporate earnings have so far been stable. Even in sectors such as automotive, which showed very weak numbers last year, were able to improve. Markets in general have become more upbeat about future earnings and a prolonged cycle. US treasury rates have moved up in the past two months but remain well-behaved as the Fed has not changed its rhetoric and data is not strong enough to push the long-end up materially. In Europe, Italy and Brexit fears have been put aside for now.
