Sustainability Themed Fund |
Investments are made in securities denominated in US dollars. The share class is denominated in GBP.
No dividend is distributed. All returns are reinvested and translated into price gains.
For Robeco BP US Large Cap Equities, ESG factors are qualitatively considered on an individual basis in the fundamental analysis but are not structurally integrated in the investment process.
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.
Looking to the year ahead, the fund will remain focused on finding stocks that exhibit attractive valuations, strong business fundamentals and positive/improving momentum on a company by company basis, and taking advantage of any market dislocations. Investors have received a shot of confidence that global economies will continue to improve through 2021, as vaccines will help overcome the virus-related slowdown. With the recent rise in Covid-19 cases globally, investors should brace themselves for a potential increase in economic stress during the first quarter of 2021, though value stocks are expected to grow earnings much quicker in 2021 and 2022, which could repeat the type of success that value investments enjoyed in 2010.
