About this strategy
A European high yield strategy that actively seeks to generate competitive risk-adjusted returns, principally through strong security selection combined with top-down beta management. The strategy adopts an ESG focused, research-first mentality on both macro and security selection risks.
The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations and you may not get back the amount originally invested. Past Performance is not a guide to future performance. No investment strategy, including a protection strategy, can ensure a profit or eliminate the risk of loss.
