By investing in this Product, you become a holder of the share class A USD in the Sub-fund. This Sub-fund is actively managed aiming to maximize returns ("income"). In order to achieve such aim, the Sub-fund invests its assets primarily (directly and/or indirectly) in floating rate senior loans and other debt instruments worldwide with no currency, sectorial or credit rating limitations. Senior loans are debt instruments that provide the lender a senior claim to borrower's assets which take priority over unsecured loans or debt instruments. The Sub-fund may gain an indirect exposure to floating rate senior loans and other debt instruments by investing in structured products, undertakings for collective investment or derivative instruments such as futures, options and swaps. The average credit quality of the Sub-fund is expected to be below investment grade. The Sub-fund may use derivatives to reduce the impact of changes in the currency exchange rates on investments made in currencies other than USD. The return of this Sub-fund depends mainly on the interest and principal reimbursement received on the floating rate senior loans and other debt instruments. The return is also related to the recommended holding period and the risk and reward profile of the Sub-fund. This Product makes distributions.
