Global Emerging Markets Corporate Bond

Overview

Summary of Fund Objective

To seek to maximise income and growth of capital (total return). The Fund mainly invests in corporate and government bonds issued in emerging markets, including Mainland China (through the Bond Connect or directly), and denominated in any currency. The Fund may invest significantly in below investment grade and unrated bonds.

Sustainability-related Disclosures

The Fund promotes environmental and social characteristics in accordance with Article 8 of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (the “SFDR”).  

In its implementation of the Fund’s environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) strategy, the Investment Managers invest in green, social and sustainability bonds, avoid laggard issuers with an underperforming ESG profile as captured by its proprietary ESG methodology, and engage with the 20% of worst-scoring issuers within their sector based on their greenhouse gas emissions and greenhouse gas intensity if actively held by the Fund. In addition, the Fund applies specific ESG exclusions.  

The Fund’s environmental or social characteristics are assessed both quantitatively and qualitatively, by means of sustainability indicators as well as of the Investment Managers’ proprietary ESG ratings system and its engagement process further described in the Website disclosure’s dedicated sections. As part of its investment decision making process, the Fund’s ESG strategy also uses binding criteria for the selection of underlying assets.  

Finally, the Fund has a minimum allocation of 5% of its portfolio to sustainable investments. The Fund ensures that its sustainable investments do not cause significant harm to any environmental or social sustainable investment objective.

  • invest for the medium to long term

What Are The Key Risks?

The value of shares in the Fund and income received from it can go down as well as up and may not get back the full amount invested. Performance may also be affected by currency fluctuations. Currency fluctuations may affect the value of overseas investments.

  • The Fund invests mainly in debt securities of any quality issued by government-related and corporate issuers located in developing and emerging markets. Such securities and derivatives have historically been subject to price movements, generally due to interest rates, market factors or movements in the bond market. As a result, the performance of the Fund can fluctuate over time.
  • Other significant risks include:
    Counterparty risk: the risk of failure of financial institutions or agents (when serving as a counterparty to financial contracts) to perform their obligations, whether due to insolvency, bankruptcy or other causes.
    Credit risk: the risk of loss arising from default that may occur if an issuer fails to make principal or interest payments when due. This risk is higher if the Fund holds low-rated, sub-investment-grade securities.
    Derivative Instruments risk: the risk of loss in an instrument where a small change in the value of the underlying investment may have a larger impact on the value of such instrument. Derivatives may involve additional liquidity, credit and counterparty risks.
    Emerging markets risk: the risk related to investing in countries that have less developed political, economic, legal and regulatory systems, and that may be impacted by political/economic instability, lack of liquidity or transparency, or safekeeping issues.
    Liquidity risk: the risk that arises when adverse market conditions affect the ability to sell assets when necessary. Such risk may be triggered by (but not limited to) unexpected events such as environmental disasters or pandemics. Reduced liquidity may have a negative impact on the price of the assets.

For full details of all of the risks applicable to this Fund, please refer to the “Risk Considerations” section of the Fund in the current prospectus of Franklin Templeton Investment Funds.
