Investment Profile

Sauren Emerging Markets Balanced is an actively managed fund of funds investing in all significant asset classes in the emerging markets, for risk-tolerant investors with a long-term investment horizon. 

Sauren Emerging Markets Balanced seeks to achieve sustainable excess returns over a balanced investment in the emerging market equities and bonds with lower volatility. 

The portfolio invests irrespective of benchmarks in emerging market equity funds, bond funds and absolute return funds. The broad diversification, covering not only traditional asset classes such as bonds and equities but also absolute return components, allows Sauren Emerging Markets Balanced to be managed as a modern multi-asset-strategy. You will find detailed information about the investment opportunities in the current valid prospectus. 

The choice of funds follows Sauren’s established person-related investment philosophy "We invest in fund managers – not funds", with its focus on the skills of the fund managers. The environment for volume is also analysed in detail.

Analysis of the most promising fund managers draws on experience from over 8,000 meetings. Every year, meetings are held with around 300 fund managers to monitor the quality of the selected fund managers and generate a steady stream of new and attractive investment ideas.

Performance

Performance of Sauren Emerging Markets Balanced D as at 20.06.2025

The Investor would like to buy shares for 1,000.-- € and due to a 5.00% front-end load the total payable amount rises to 1,050.-- €. The gross performance (BVI method) is based on the published redemption prices of the Fund of Funds, which includes all costs incurred at the fund level (e.g. management fee), the net performance also includes the front-end load. The front-end load is only payable at the day of investment and therefore reduces the performance in the first year. In the following years no front-end load is considered, as such the net performance is not displayed in the bar chart as it is equal to the gross performance. Additional costs may be incurred at the investor level (e.g. custody costs). If the front-end load were taken into account in the line chart the performance in the chart would be lower.

Due to its composition / the techniques used for its management, the fund is exposed to increased volatility; this means that unit prices may be subject to considerable upward and downward fluctuations, even within short periods of time.

* The chart shows the performance achieved under the same investment conditions of a unit class launched in 2011 of a fund previously existing in a different legal form until December 31, 2021. The Unit class is that of a fund that previously held another legal form, but was adapted in 2014 to meet European requirements for the funds business and has been UCITS-compliant since then.
