The proportion of emerging market bonds is restricted to a maximum of 20 %. Asset-backed securities/mortgage-backed securities (ABS/MBS) may not exceed 10 % of fund assets and may only be acquired, if they carry an investment-grade rating. Foreign currency exposure exceeding 10 % of the fund's volume needs to be hedged against euros.

Investing involves risk. The value of an investment and the income from it may fall as well as rise and investors might not get back the full amount invested. Investing in fixed income instruments may expose investors to various risks, including but not limited to creditworthiness, interest rate, liquidity and restricted flexibility risks. Changes to the economic environment and market conditions may affect these risks, resulting in an adverse effect to the value of the investment. During periods of rising nominal interest rates, the values of fixed income instruments (including positions with respect to short-term fixed income instruments) are generally expected to decline. Conversely, during periods of declining interest rates, the values of these instruments are generally expected to rise. Liquidity risk may possibly delay or prevent account withdrawals or redemptions.
