Global asset management firm Algebris Investments’ new sustainable bond fund will invest in fixed income securities issued by high-quality, resilient companies across various geographies and sectors. Its objective is to achieve long-term, consistent results while contributing to sustainable development. The fund’s investment objective is to generate a positive impact on the environmental and social standards of investee firms. Labelled as Article 9 under the EU’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), the fund will be managed by Gabriele Foà, Portfolio Manager, and the Algebris Global Credit team. It will also benefit from the industry expertise of Antonio Volpin, Senior Investment Director, the ESG framework developed by Silvia Merler, Head of ESG & Policy Research, and the experience of Simone Ragazzi, Portfolio Manager for Algebris Sustainable World Fund. “The Algebris Sustainable Bond Fund adds to our existing global credit offering by providing a long-only, low-beta alternative to our flexible solutions in this space,” said Foà, adding that the strategy would focus on high-quality companies with healthy business models and sound financial metrics, offering attractive risk-reward with sustainability.
