Ruth Core Nordic Credit is an actively managed fixed income fund focused on corporate bonds issued by Nordic companies with high credit quality.
The majority of the fund’s investments—approximately 75 percent—are in Investment Grade bonds, issued by companies characterized by stable demand, strong cash flows, long-term ownership, and proven business models with low credit risk and good liquidity. The remaining portion is invested in carefully selected High Yield bonds, which offer higher return potential at slightly higher risk.
The fund has sustainable investment as its objective, and each investment undergoes a rigorous sustainability analysis to ensure it contributes to environmental or social goals and does not cause significant harm. This means each underlying investment must contribute to either an environmental or social objective in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
This fund is comprehensive enough to serve as the core building block for Nordic corporate bonds in your portfolio and aims to outperform its benchmark index, Solactive SEK IG Credit, over the long term.
