The aim of the Sub-fund is to provide long term capital growth while at the same time aiming for a better sustainability profile compared to the Benchmark by promoting certain ESG (i.e. Environmental, Social and corporate Governance) characteristics and integrating sustainability risks in the investment process. The Sub-fund will take exposure of at least two-thirds of its total assets to equities of companies incorporated or exercising a preponderant part of their economic activities in Emerging Countries. The Sub-fund is actively managed. The Sub-fund uses a quantitative stock selection strategy which ranks stocks on their expected future relative performance using three factors: a strategy focusing on stocks with an attractive valuation (Value); a strategy focusing on stocks of companies with a medium term attractive performance trend (Momentum); and a strategy focusing on high quality equities, e.g. equity of companies with strong balance sheets and high profitability (Quality).
