SFDR DISCLOSURE
31-Jan-2020 - Dean Tenerelli, Portfolio Manager,
The market tone brightened following the signature of the U.S.-China trade accord and greater clarity on Brexit. If the uncertainty relating to these issues lessens further, we believe investment and export growth should pick up, helping company earnings and lifting equity markets. Investor concerns still include the economy, but the big uncertainties now seem to be the impact of coronavirus on China and global growth, and the outcome of the U.S. presidential elections.

Overview
Strategy
Fund Summary
We leverage our strong research team to identify companies with durable business models that we believe are positioned firmly on the right side of change, or those companies undergoing idiosyncratic changes which in our view will help deliver improving shareholder returns. Disciplined portfolio construction focuses on those stocks with the most compelling risk/reward profiles. The promotion of environmental and/or social characteristics is achieved through the fund's commitment to maintain at least 10% of the value of its portfolio invested in Sustainable Investments, as defined by the SFDR. Additionally, we apply a proprietary responsible screen (exclusion list). The manager is not constrained by the fund’s benchmark, which is used for performance comparison purposes only.

Performance - Net of Fees

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

30-Sep-2024 - Sebastian Schrott, Co-Portfolio Manager,
European shares slipped lower in September after a month of volatile trading driven by concerns about the outlook for economic growth and the pace of monetary policy easing. However, weakening economic indicators and subdued inflation across Europe and the world made investors increasingly confident that the interest-rate-cutting cycle could be more sustained. At the portfolio level, energy and information technology were the bottom-performing sectors due to negative effects from stock picking and our positioning, particularly an above-benchmark exposure to energy. Lacking exposure to real estate also hurt; the sector outperformed within the benchmark as bond yields fell. Our holding in an Iberian oil and gas explorer weighed most in energy. The shares fell as the price of oil declined, potentially reducing the value of new barrels and making further exploration uncertain. On the other hand, communication services and industrials and business services supported relative returns thanks mostly to stock picking. Our investment in a online classified advertising firm focusing on German real estate was the best performer in communication services. The share price extended its rally after solid second-quarter results unveiled in August driven by a recovery in the housing market.
31-Jan-2024 - Tobias Mueller, Portfolio Manager,
In this inflationary environment, we aim to hold companies that exhibit pricing power or that are outright inflation beneficiaries at reasonable multiples. In consumer discretionary, we initiated a position in a producer of luxury watches and jewellery whose stock we expect to rerate as its high-end brands drive organic growth. We adjusted our health care holdings. We exited a Germany-based drug research company after unexpected management changes threw its turnaround strategy into question. We invested in a company that operates in the chronic care medical products industry that we believe could increase market share in the US.
