About the fund

Ruth Core Nordic Credit is an actively managed fund that invests in corporate bonds issued by Nordic companies as well as in green, social and sustainability-linked bonds.

This fund is comprehensive enough to be the main building block for Nordic corporate fixed income and bonds in your portfolio and is a good fit for those looking for an investment in Nordic corporate bonds.

The investment strategy is built around two parts which together are a unique combination of sustainability and risk management. The first part is a combination of the three-dimensional sustainability model "Sustainability CubeTM" which assesses the companies' sustainability profile based on their greenhouse gas emissions, ESG ranking and their contribution to meeting the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, and a selection of green, social and sustainability-linked bonds in the fund's investments. In the second part, a well-balanced portfolio structure based on analysis of macroeconomic conditions and trends is ensured. 

By combining these two parts, we get a unique mix of a model-based sustainability strategy and a fundamental analysis of both macro trends and company-specific risks - something that is unique for a corporate bond fund.
