Manager
The Fund offers strategic management of the currency curve exposure and duration of the portfolio, a careful selection of securities based on profitability and relative value criteria, and an adequate diversification of the Fund between different and complementary instruments.
In detail, the overall duration of the portfolio managed tends to be lower than 36 months.
The fund invests mainly in short-term government bonds, prioritising issues with an Investment Grade rating – including repurchase agreements and bank deposits – and in units of funds (or SICAVs) set up by third parties with characteristics consistent with those of the fund.
Investment in non-governmental securities will always be residual, in order to increase the diversification and profitability of the portfolio, paying particular attention to the quality and creditworthiness of the issuers and the sectors they belong to.
The investment is concentrated exclusively in instruments issued in Euros, without taking on any exchange rate risk. The use of derivatives is allowed for interest rate risk hedging and efficient portfolio management.
