Antipodes Emerging Market Debt Fund

The Antipodes Emerging Market Debt Fund is managed using a disciplined value-oriented approach supported by intensive, on-the-ground bottom-up fundamental research resulting in a concentrated portfolio of fixed interest securities issued by companies in emerging markets, which, in the view of the Investment Manager, are undervalued, on either an absolute or a relative basis, have the potential to generate regular income and have the potential for some capital appreciation.

This product is intended for use as a satellite or minor allocation for a consumer who is seeking regular income and some long-term capital growth and has a medium/high risk and return profile for that portion of their investment portfolio. It is likely to be consistent with the financial situation and needs of a consumer with a 3 year investment timeframe and who is unlikely to need to withdraw their money on less than one week’s notice.
