Basic Funds
– ISI International Bonds
Investment philosophy
The fund invests in foreign bonds. The bonds in the fund are issued in other currencies than DKK. The fund aims to utilise the movements of bond prices and exchange rates of the various countries to increase fund return. The fund pursues an active currency policy and will to a great extent be affected by exchange rate movements in the countries where the fund invests.
Target group
The fund is typically designed for investors seeking higher returns than those offered by European bonds. Investors are aware that return is dependent on developments in ex-change rates and bond prices and that prices may fluctuate. This means that there may be periods of losses and negative returns. The typical investor has an investment horizon of at least three years. ISI International Bonds is an accumulation fund and as such it does not distribute dividends.
