CT (Lux) Global Em. Mkt ST Bonds ZU $

The Fund aims to provide income with the potential to grow the amount you invested over the long term. The Fund invests at least two-thirds of its assets in investment grade or below investment grade bonds (which are similar to a loan and pay a fixed or variable interest rate) issued or guaranteed by companies and governments in emerging markets. Bonds rated as below investment grade have received lower ratings from international agencies that provide such ratings and are considered riskier than higher rated bonds but typically pay a higher income. Emerging market investments are typically more volatile and present higher risk than investments in more established markets. Investors should consider this extra risk when evaluating the potential benefits of investing in this Fund. The average duration of the bonds the Fund invests in will be five years or less. Duration is the sensitivity of a bond to a change in interest rates. The longer the duration of a bond, the higher its sensitivity to interest rates will be. The Fund invests directly in these assets or by using derivatives (complex instruments). The Fund may also use derivatives for hedging purposes or to manage the Fund more efficiently. Derivatives may create leverage (market exposure in excess of the net asset value of the Fund). Up to 10% of the Fund's assets may be invested in bonds traded on the China Interbank Bond Market using Bond Connect. The Fund may also invest in asset classes and instruments different from those stated above. The Fund is actively managed in reference to the J.P. Morgan EMBI Global 3-5 Years Index. The index is broadly representative of the securities in which the Fund invests, and provides a suitable target benchmark against which Fund performance will be measured and evaluated over time. The fund manager has discretion to select investments with weightings different to the index, and that are not in the index, and the Fund may display significant divergence from the index.
