Emerging markets diversified fixed income management
The Sub-Fund seeks high total return provided by current income and capital appreciation from investing primarily in emerging markets fixed income securities across hard currency sovereign, corporate and local currency debt. The strategy seeks to maximize risk-adjusted total returns, utilizing a traditional fixed income framework. In allocating investments among various emerging market countries, the portfolio managers seek to analyze internal political, market and economic factors. These factors include, but are not limited to public finances, monetary policy, external accounts, financial markets, foreign investment regulations, exchange rate policy, and labor conditions. The Sub-Fund may invest in distressed or defaulted corporate securities
where the portfolio managers believe the restructured enterprise valuations or liquidation valuations may significantly exceed current market values.
In addition, the Sub-Fund may invest in distressed or defaulted sovereign investments where the portfolio managers believe the expected debt sustainability of the country exceeds current market valuations.
