Investment objective

This bond fund aims to achieve a positive return over three years (volatility target: maximum 3% per annum) and seeks to promote environmental or social practices, while respecting risk diversification.


Key features

The fund invests worldwide mainly in shorter-term bonds in different currencies of various issuers of investment grade quality that seek to promote environmental or social practices. The average maturity of the portfolio is 3.5 years. The fund can use derivative financial instruments for hedging purposes.


Approach

The experienced and diverse investment team takes high-conviction decisions based on rigorous macro-economic, technical and issuer analyses. To define the investment universe, the team applies a two-step sustainability screening based on a proprietary scoring model: 1) to exclude issuers active in controversial businesses or intensively using fossil resources, 2) to include only those issuers whose sustainability scores exceed the defined minimum. In line with their continuous assessment of market developments, the team flexibly allocates interest-rate and credit risks in the portfolio, striving to benefit throughout the economic cycle.

An actively managed genuinely sustainable Article 9 fund, long only, unlevered, easy to understand and designed to keep volatility low.

Vontobel Fund - TwentyFour Sustainable Short-Term Bond Income (SSTBI) applies both positive and negative ESG screening to the investment universe, a system designed to reward companies for sound ESG practices. SSTBI is an actively managed short term bond fund that aims to deliver steady returns in any market environment while keeping volatility to a minimum.
