FIXED INCOME

Overview

Objective

The Fund is classified as a financial product under Article 9 of the EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation. The Fund has a sustainable investment objective and it will invest in economic activities that qualify as environmentally sustainable under the EU Taxonomy. Detailed information on the sustainability related disclosures of the Fund can be found in the PCD (Pre-contractual disclosure document annex of the prospectus) on https://www.gsam.com/responsible-investing/en-INT/non-professional/funds/documents. The fund invests at least 85% of its net assets in a portfolio of green bonds predominantly (minimum 2/3) denominated in US Dollar. Green bonds are any type of bond instruments where the proceeds will be applied to finance or re-finance in part or in full new and/or existing projects that are beneficial to the environment. The selection process involves green bond analysis, traditional credit analysis and ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) analysis which may be limited by the quality and availability of the data disclosed by issuers or provided by third parties. Example of non-financial criteria assessed in the ESG analysis is annual greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions avoided. When selecting investments the Investment Manager shall analyse, maintain and update the credit rating of future investments and shall ensure that the average rating of the portfolio is BBB- or better. Investments in bonds with a higher risk (with a quality rating lower than BBB- but still higher than BB-) may not exceed 10% of the fund's net assets. Measured over a period of 5 years the fund aims to beat the performance of the benchmark Bloomberg MSCI Global Green Bond Index USD Total Return Index Unhedged USD. The benchmark is a broad representation of the fund's investment universe. The fund may also include investments into bonds that are not part of the benchmark universe. The fund is actively managed with a focus on bond selection where analysis of specific issuers of bonds is combined with a broader market analysis to construct the optimal portfolio, with deviation limits maintained relative to the benchmark. The aim is to exploit differences in valuations of issuers of bonds between sectors and differences in valuations between sectors and different quality segments (ratings). Therefore, the fund's investments can materially deviate from the benchmark. You can sell your participation in this fund on each (working) day on which the value of the units is calculated, which for this fund occurs daily. The fund does not aim to provide you with a dividend. It will reinvest all earnings.
