Fund Objective: The Fund aims to provide income with the prospect of some investment growth over the long term (5 years or more). The Fund is actively managed, and invests at least two-thirds of its assets in bonds denominated in sterling (GBP) or euro (EUR). In addition to GBP or EUR denominated bonds, the Fund may invest in bonds priced in other currencies, however all non-sterling bonds are usually hedged back to sterling. The Fund follows a strategic investment approach, allowing for changes to allocation between investment grade and below investment grade corporate bonds, as well as investment in government bonds and bonds issued by international organisations. This approach aims to position the Fund to take advantage of those areas of the bond market that are considered to offer the best return potential. The Fund is permitted to use derivatives for investment purposes. This includes allowing the Fund to profit from the fall in the price of an asset (shorting), as well as extending market exposure beyond the value of its assets (leverage). In addition, derivatives may be used with the aim of reducing risk or managing the Fund more efficiently. Derivatives are sophisticated investment instruments linked to the rise and fall of the price of other assets. The Fund may also invest in other assets such as cash and deposits, and hold other funds (including funds managed by Columbia Threadneedle companies) when deemed appropriate.

ESG

What is ESG?

ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance and is an approach for evaluating to what extent a company works towards social goals. For investors this can be used in order to understand how their funds and the assets they are made up of work towards these goals and use that information to help make sustainable investment choices.

The FCA website sets out further information in relation to the sustainability labelling and disclosure requirements.
