Ninety One Global Strategy Fund SICAV - Emerging Markets Investment Grade Corporate Debt Fund -I-Acc- Capitalisation

BENCHMARK AWARD-REVIEW:

The Emerging Markets Investment Grade Corporate Debt Fund aims to provide income with long-term capital growth and has a consistent record of outperformance in this asset class.

Investment style is fundamentally-driven, value investment seeking to identify mis-pricing in corporate debt across the extremely diverse, emerging market universe. We liked the thorough analysis process including both country and company approach, as well review of both structural and cyclical factors driving credit fundamentals. Risk and liquidity management is clearly a strength evidenced by the manager’s successful navigation of the volatile Covid-19 period where strongly held conviction positions were maintained or added to, leading to subsequent outperformance.

Robust processes in place to control governance and investment style consistency, known as “Structured Reportback” meeting held regularly with Head of Risk and the CIOs.

Well-developed and longstanding ESG process that both reviews and quantifies ESG risk factors, alongside timing to generate a credit impact score. Thoughtful example cited of how ESG is integrated into the investment process, whereby ESG concerns overruled otherwise attractive fundamental metrics of an Indian mining company leading to investment being declined.

This fund has been reviewed by three industry veterans of the Benchmark judging committee.
