KIS Bond Plus is a flexible bond fund (absolute return long bias) which invests in liquid instruments of the bond market (government, corporate and financial bonds) with a top-down approach complemented by rigorous bottom-up fundamental analysis, both on issuer and on individual issues, that comply with ESG criteria.
The investment universe is global, with a focus on European corporate and government issuers.
The portfolio is well diversified and aims to minimize correlations between the various components. Diversification is achieved by typically investing in more than 100 issues. Portfolio construction takes place according to the principles of broad diversification and low concentration, using all the instruments of the bond market to adapt to different economic contexts.
The idea of the team is to look for investment opportunities through:
– credit strategies;
– interest rate strategies.
The main management objective is medium-term capital appreciation and the achievement of a balanced and efficient risk/return ratio through the use of instruments that aim for a low correlation with global bond assets and broad diversification.
