INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The objective of the fund is to ensure a high coupon flow investing in various bond asset classes (mainly corporate High Yield), with a high diversification both sectorially and geographically. The exchange risk is totally hedged through the use of forwards.

MANAGER COMMENT
The fund registered a negative performance of -0.42% in January, thus bringing the YTD performance to -0.42%.
We maintain the usual allocation diversified on three geographical areas: Europe, USA and Emerging countries.
We maintain an overweight on the Financial sector and we still believe that Convertibles are an interesting alternative in this framework of contained rates and low spreads.
The hedged yield of the portfolio is now around 3%, with duration of 4.3 years and weighted average Rating BB+.
Operatively, we added to the portfolio some New Issues and, in the second half of the month, we started selling some bonds with lower yields in order to have sufficient liquidity for the coupon that the fund will pay in February.
Currency risk is fully hedged by using forward contracts.
