PAI indicators are accounted for by both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Where it is not feasible to set quantitative thresholds, the Investment Manager engages. If a company fails to satisfy the quantitative thresholds, it would be excluded. We make a qualitative assessments if the data available does not enable us to make a quantitative determination regarding whether significant harm is done so as to warrant excluding an investment. In such cases, the Investment Manager engages wherever possible. |

Further remarks on the consideration of SDGs | - |
Rationale behind classification according to SFDR | Article 8 It promotes Environmental/Social (E/S) characteristics and while it does not have as its objective a sustainable investment, it will have a minimum proportion of 60.00% of sustainable investments with an environmental objective in economic activities that do not qualify as environmentally sustainable under the EU Taxonomy and/or with a social objective. The Fund maintains a higher overall sustainability score than the ICE Bank of America Merrill Lynch Euro Corporate index, based on the Investment Manager’s rating system. The sustainability score of the Fund is measured by SustainEx™, Schroders’ proprietary tool that provides an estimate of the potential societal or environmental impact that an issuer may create. |
Engagement | Yes, organized internally Link to engagement policy |
Voting | n/a Bond fund Link to voting policy |
Best-in/of-Class | Best-In-Class The fund applies a best-in-class approach that is based on credible exclusions, our internal, proprietary ESG assessment, as well as third party ESG ratings. This approach results in a better sustainability profile for the fund compared to the reference comparator. While we continuously search for improving ESG stories also through engagement, we limit or divest ESG laggards in the fund. |
ESG-Integration | Yes We firmly believe that non-financial considerations including environmental, social and governance issues have a material influence on the sustainability of issuer cash-flows. ESG is fully integrated into our investment process. The fund applies its sustainable approach through: 1) Strict and credible exclusions, 2) inclusion of issuers that demonstrate stable and (importantly) improving ESG trajectory, 3) multiple sustainability themes, 4) engagement with issuers, 5) investing in green, social bonds and sustainability bonds, 6) creating a net positive sustainability impact at the portfolio level |
