EdenTree Global Impact Bond Fund
Dedicated to sustainable investing
The EdenTree Global Impact Bond Fund seeks to deliver positive environmental and social impacts alongside a regular level of income, payable quarterly, through its investment in global fixed income securities.
The Fund aims to support a reduction in the level of greenhouse gas emissions caused by human activity by investing in bonds that provide sustainable solutions and engaging with the companies that issue them. It also aims to increase access to basic services for underserved communities by investing in bonds that contribute to social infrastructure, health and wellbeing and education and financial inclusion.
The Fund’s management team applies holistic analysis of the underlying debt issuers using the Fund’s proprietary impact assessment framework. This is combined with in-depth fundamental credit research and the EdenTree Standard – EdenTree’s sustainability assesment that helps identify companies that are creating value for people, the planet and for investors.
The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations, you may not get back the amount you originally invested.
Investing for a better tomorrow
The EdenTree Global Impact Bond Fund was launched in 2022 and is managed by David Katimbo-Mugwanya, EdenTree's Head of Fixed Income, and Associate Fund Manager Michael Moir.
Further information on the Fund’s Investment Objectives, Sustainability Objective and Sustainability Approach can be found in the Prospectus, Sustainability Disclosure and Key Investor Information Document. All are available via our Literature page.
