Transcription

1 EdR Fund Europe Convertibles GENERAL INFORMATION Investment objective The objective is to grow the value of its assets in the medium term (3 to 5 years). The assets of the Sub-Fund are predominantly, but not exclusively, invested in convertible or exchangeable bonds with underlying assets in the eurozone. The Sub-Fund seeks to optimise the risk/return ratio over the specified period by diversifying its sources of return underlying assets, sector, coupon, issuer, interest rate and currency based on a systematic analysis of the various exposures.

We draw your attention to the fact that the management of the Edmond de Rothschild Fund Europe Convertibles Luxembourg sub-fund ( the absorbing fund ) will maintain the same investment restrictions and limitations of the French fund ("the absorbed fund") without modifying or increasing the risk/return profile. The fee structure will be amended, but this will have no impact on the ongoing charges published in the KIID in the same year. Performance prior to the creation date of this sub-fund is simulated historical performance based on the performance of the EDR Europe Convertibles French Mutual Fund. The performance ratings and past performance is not indicative of future ratings. Past performance can be misleading. Performance data does not take into account the fees and charges received when issuing and redeeming units, nor the tax charged by the client s country of residence. For the distribution class, we have assumed that gross coupons, before fees and taxes levied by the customer's country of residence, were reinvested in the calculation of performance. Since the performance of both the distribution and accumulation classes is highly correlated, only performance from the accumulation class is given in this report.

3 EdR Fund Europe Convertibles INFORMATION ON THE RISKS OF THE PRODUCT Risk and reward profile Lower risk, potentially lower return 1 Higher risk, potentially higher return Synthetic risk/return indicator ranks the fund on a scale from 1 to 7 (1 being the less risky ranking, 7 being the most risky ranking). This rating system is based on average fluctuations in the fund's net asset value over the past five years, i.e. the scale of changes in the index securities, both up and down. If the net asset value is less than 5 years old, the rating is determined by other regulatory calculation methods. Historic data such as those used to calculate the synthetic indicator may not be a reliable indication of the future risk profile. The current category is neither a guarantee nor an objective. Category 1 does not signify a risk free investment. For more details on the methodology of the ranking, please consult the key investor information document (KIID) of the fund. This fund is rated in category 4, in accordance with the type of shares and geographical zones presented in the "objectives and investment policy" section. Significant risks not taken into account in this indicator : Counterparty risk : where a fund is backed by collateral or has significant investment exposure through contracts with a third party. Credit Risk : When a significant level of investment is made in debt securities. Impact of techniques such as derivative contracts : The use of derivatives instruments can infer a decrease of the asset more significant than the decrease of the invested underlying assets or markets. Liquidity Risk : The markets for some securities and instruments may have limited liquidity. This limited liquidity could be a disadvantage to the Sub-Fund, both in the realisation of the prices quoted and in the execution of orders at desired prices. The occurrence of any of these risks may negatively impact the net asset value. Please note that the main risks of this UCITS are as follows : - Interest rate risk - Risk linked to financial and counterparty contracts - Credit risk - Discretionary management risk - Risk linked to the currency of units denominated in a currency other than that of the UCI - Liquidity risk - Currency risk - Risk linked to derivatives - Equity risk CONTACTS Edmond de Rothschild Asset Management Benelux info@lcfr.be 3/5

It is the result of an analysis and the assessment of the financial situation of a company or government, to repay these creditors. As such, for investors, it represents a key factor in the estimation of the risk that an investment involves. This rating is expressed within a range from AAA to D, where AAA denotes very low or unlikely risk, and D denotes default. We often talk about low-risk issues (rated from AAA to BBB-), also known as Investment Grade (IG), as opposed to risky bonds (rating <BBB-), known as High Yield (HY). 4/5

5 MONTHLY FACTSHEET AS OF 28/04/20 EdR Fund Europe Convertibles DEFINITIONS The PERFORMANCE, often expressed as a % makes it possible to measure the capital gain or loss of an investment over a period (10% = gain of 10 units for every 100 invested). Performance can also be expressed per annum. This is equivalent to extrapolating the performance of a fund over any period to a one-year period. In either case, a loss is indicated by a negative percentage and a gain by a positive percentage. The VOLATILITY of a security is the difference between performance and average performance and therefore makes it possible to gauge the consistency of performance obtained. It comprises a measure of risk. If this is zero, the individual performances are identical. The higher it is, the greater the difference between individual performances. The TRACKING ERROR shows the volatility of a fund s relative performance against that of its benchmark. It shows the difference between performances and their average and so makes it possible to gauge the consistency of relative performance. The lower the tracking error, the closer the fund s performance is to that of its benchmark. The INFORMATION RATIO represents the relative performance obtained by the fund manager for each agreed volatility point in comparison with the benchmark. To some degree, it is this measurement that makes it possible to establish whether the additional risk taken by the fund manager is, in comparison with the benchmark, rewarding or otherwise. The ALPHA corresponds to the fund s average performance. More specifically, it measures the fund managers added value while cancelling out market influence, which cannot be controlled. This measure is expressed as a percentage. The SHARPE RATIO shows the fund s outperformance against a zero-risk interest rate (the Eonia, in this case), adjusted for fund volatility. The BETA measures the market s influence (represented by a benchmark) on the performance of a fund. It shows the average variation of the fund s NAV, for each variation of 1% in the benchmark. If beta is 0.8, this means that for each 1% movement in the benchmark, the fund moves 0.8%. The CORRELATION COEFFICIENT defines the direction and degree of dependence between two variables. It ranges from -1 to +1. Positive correlation means that the benchmark and the fund move in the same direction, negative correlation means that they move in opposite directions. When correlation is close to zero, the benchmark s influence on the fund is very low. The R2 or the DETERMINATION COEFFICIENT measures to what extent variations in fund performance are explained by variations in the benchmark. Mathematically, it is the square of the correlation coefficient. It always has a value of between 0 and 1. INVESTISSEMENT GRADE (IG) is a term used to define bond issues with a low level of risk whose financial ratings range from AAA to BBB- according to the Standard & Poor s scale. The risk of default of such issues is low, and their level of remuneration is much lower than that of high-yield issues. HIGH YIELD (HY) is a term used to define speculative bond issues whose financial ratings are strictly below BBB- according to the Standard & Poor s scale. The remuneration of such issues is high, but the counterparty default risk is also high. Subordinated debts are issues for which lenders agree to be disadvantaged compared to other more senior creditors in the event of default of the borrower. Some of the most common subordinated debts include issues where the contract between the lender and borrower sets out repayment terms only after all other senior creditors are repaid. Subordinated junior debt has further constraints, and is considered as junior to subordinated debt. In consideration of these constraints which adversely affect lenders risk, said lenders will expect greater remuneration and other benefits set out in the conditions of issue. MATURITY AT THE NEXT CALL is the date of the next repayment of the bond. The bond issuer may include a clause to repay part of the capital before final maturity at a determined price. In general, these clauses schedule initial and final periods during which repayment is not possible. These bonds are said to be callable. OVERLAY MANAGEMENT is an approach based on the hedging of existing risks (equities, interest rate, currency, etc.) in a portfolio. UCITS means Undertaking for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities. This category of financial products includes the Mutual Fund (FCP) and the Société d Investissement à Capital Variable (SICAV). UCI means Undertaking for Collective Investment. This category of financial products includes the Mutual Fund (FCP) and the Société d Investissement à Capital Variable (SICAV). There are two categories of UCI, namely UCITS Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities and AIFs Alternative Investment Funds. SICAV (Société d Investissement à Capital Variable) means open-ended investment company with variable capital. FUND means Mutual Fund.
