Investment policy

The fund gains exposure to bonds and equities, with emphasis on bonds, by investing in other funds such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and index-tracking funds. The fund mainly invests in underlying funds where similar ESG-related processes, criteria and characteristics are applied or can be found, although these funds do not necessarily promote ESG characteristics. The fund may gain exposure to any credit quality, sector and country, including emerging markets.

Specifically, the fund's default asset allocation is 80% in bonds and 20% in equities, but this may be adjusted depending on the investment manager's market outlook.

The allocation to bonds and other debt instruments shall be 60% to 100% and the allocation to equities 0% to 40%.

The fund is categorised as article 8 under SFDR and promotes environmental and/or social characteristics, as well as good governance practices, through screening, exclusions, investment analysis and decision-making as well as active ownership. The fund follows Danske Invest's responsible investment policy.

In actively managing the fund’s portfolio, the management team applies a flexible asset allocation that seeks to take full advantage of market changes and opportunities.

The fund may use derivatives for hedging and efficient portfolio management.

The main part of the share class' NAV will be hedged against the base currency of the fund. However, the share class remains exposed to the currencies of the investments in the fund.
