SFDR DISCLOSURE
31-Aug-2016 - Michael Conelius, Portfolio Manager,
Near term, we look to maintain slightly more defensive positioning given less relative value support and an expected increase in supply. Despite the potential for volatility stemming from uncertainties, such as a U.S. interest rate hike and a reversal of commodity prices, emerging markets debt continues to offer a more attractive yield over developed bond markets.

Overview
Strategy
Fund Summary
Actively managed and invests mainly in a diversified portfolio of debt securities of all types from emerging market issuers.
Performance - Net of Fees

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. Performance returns are calculated on a NAV-NAV basis, net of fees, with distributions reinvested. Returns for the current year performance is cumulative. Benchmark returns are shown with reinvestment of dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes. The Excess Returns are shown as Fund % minus the Benchmark %. Performance returns for share classes less than 1 year old (and associated benchmarks) are cumulative rather than annualised.

30-Nov-2023 - Samy Muaddi, Portfolio Manager,
Emerging markets debt advanced in November amid large yield declines and narrowing credit spreads. Within the portfolio, our holdings in Venezuela gave back some of their gains following last month’s outperformance and detracted significantly from relative returns. Our underweight allocation to Argentina also hindered as the country’s bonds rallied amid President-elect Javier Milei’s orthodox choices for key ministerial appointments. Our positioning in Chile held back relative performance further as the country’s longer-duration sovereign bonds outperformed most corporates for the month. Conversely, our significant underweight exposure to China lifted relative results amid a sluggish economic recovery and continued woes in the property market. Euro-denominated sovereign bonds in Côte d'Ivoire as well as our holdings in the Dominican Republic were beneficial as both countries benefited from credit spread compression.
30-Nov-2023 - Samy Muaddi, Portfolio Manager,
At the sector level, we continue to find value in quasi-sovereigns and corporates in higher-quality mainstream markets, such as Mexico, India, and Indonesia, that offer yield premiums over the sovereign as well as in dislocated BBB/BB rated corporates that have attractive fundamentals in the broader emerging market.
30-Nov-2023 - Samy Muaddi, Portfolio Manager,
As liquidity remained challenged, we made modest portfolio changes over the month. We remain overweight frontier countries that score well in our anchoring framework, such as Côte d’Ivoire and Angola, although we trimmed our position in the Dominican Republic on strength. We are structurally underweight higher-rated mainstream emerging markets (United Arab Emirates, Malaysia, and Uruguay), but we maintain overweight positions in some defensive countries, such as South Korea. We remain underweight select countries, such as Nigeria, that lack fundamental anchors.
31-Oct-2015 - Michael Conelius, Portfolio Manager,
Given our expectations for continued U.S. dollar strength, we maintained a low and defensive level of non-benchmark currency exposure.
