Edmond de Rothschild SICAV Short Duration Credit.


Investing in short-term corporate debt through
a defensive approach

Our
conviction



A credit fund invested primarily in bonds with a residual maturity of five years or less is, in our view, a suitable solution for investors' long-term cash investments. With this in mind, the EdR SICAV Short Duration Credit fund, which is precisely positioned on the short end of the curve, offers targeted exposure to short-term bonds, combining the search for yield with prudent interest rate risk management.

Ladder4 Strategy

An investment approach providing steady modified duration (c. 2 years) and an innovative adjustment mechanism to market dynamics

Investment strategy

 

The investment strategy is focused on the selection of companies with, according to our analysis, a low refinancing risk.

A defensive approach aimed at mitigating risks and drawdowns:

- A short-term credit portfolio with max. 10% of issues with maturity over 5 years.

- A dynamic allocation between Investment Grade2 and High Yield3 to manage the portfolio’s exposure to risk at different stages of the credit cycle.

- A broad diversification: the opportunity to invest in companies located in OECD, European Union, European Economic Area or G20 countries, with no sector and/or rating constraints.

The ladder4 structure: key features and rationale

- The Ladder-type approach equally weights maturities in separate buckets. This strategy aims to reducing interest rate and credit risks favouring a structural and steady structure, with in particular a stable low duration of around 2 years.

- Furthermore, early repayment premiums and issue premiums on the primary market are automatically reinvested each month as debt falls in the portfolio, thus providing a constant flow of liquidity.

- Finally, this structure ensures that the investment process continuously takes into account changes to market dynamics over time.

Main investment risks

Risk indicator  

The risk indicator rates this fund on a scale of 1 to 7. This indicator is used to assess the level of risk of this product in comparison to other funds and a category 1 rating does not mean that the investment is risk free. In addition, it indicates the likelihood that this product will incur losses in the event of market movements or our inability to pay you. This indicator assumes that you hold the product until the end of the recommended holding period of this fund. The actual risk may be very different if you choose to exit before the end of the recommended holding period of this Fund. The risks described below are not exhaustive. Risk of capital loss: The UCITS does not guarantee or protect the capital invested; investors may therefore not get back the full amount of their initial capital invested even if they hold their units for the recommended investment period. Credit risk linked to investments in speculative securities: The UCITS may invest in issues from countries or companies rated, at the time of purchase, as “non-investment grade” by a rating agency (rating of less than BBB- according to Standard & Poor’s or any other equivalent rating assigned by an independent agency that has an equivalent internal rating issued by the Management Company) or which are considered equivalent by the Management Company. These issues are securities deemed speculative and present a higher risk of issuer default. This UCITS should be considered partly speculative and aimed specifically at investors who are aware of the risks inherent in investing in these securities. Thus, the use of “high yield” securities (speculative securities presenting a greater risk of issuer default) may result in a greater risk of falling NAV. Credit risk: The main risk linked to debt securities and/or money market instruments such as treasury bills (BTFs and BTANs) or short-term negotiable securities is that of issuer default, due either to the non-payment of interest and/or the non repayment of capital. Credit risk is also associated with the downgrading of an issuer. Shareholders are reminded that the net asset value of the Sub-fund is likely to fall if a total loss is recorded on a financial instrument following default by an issuer. The inclusion of debt securities in the portfolio, whether directly or through UCIs, exposes the Sub-fund to the effects of variations in credit quality. Interest rate risk: By holding debt securities and money market instruments, funds are exposed to changes in interest rates. This risk is defined as a rise on interest rates causes a decline in bonds valuation and therefore a fall in of the fund’s NAV.

1. SFDR classification: A fund’s investment policy may change over time and may therefore lead to a change in its classification pursuant to the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR). If you have any doubts regarding a fund’s SFDR classification, please contact your usual adviser.

2. Investment Grade: Bonds rated in the “high quality” category by credit rating agencies (rated BBB or higher).

3. High Yield: Corporate bonds with a higher default risk than Investment Grade (or “investment category”) bonds, offering in return a higher coupon.

4. A ladder-type portfolio: A ladder-type portfolio aims to equally weight the various maturity buckets.
