Nordea European Rates Opportunity Fund

Nordea Asset Management

Strategy Description

European Rates Opportunity Fund mainly invests, directly or through derivatives, in European bonds. The strategy mainly invests in covered and government bonds with a strong bias towards European covered bonds. Specifically, the fund invests a minimum of two-thirds of total assets in European covered bonds or debt securities issued by public authorities in Europe. The fund also invests at least one-third of total assets in debt securities with a rating of AAA/Aaa or lower, but not lower than AA-/ Aa3, or equivalent. European Rates Opportunity Fund seeks to run fixed-income strategies that offer attractive relative value instead of relying on directional positions. The actively managed strategy follows a risk-based approach focusing on quantitative research.
