ESG - Frontier and Emerging Markets - Long Only
Fund Portrait
The Fund invests in frontier (ex GCC) and early emerging markets with a special focus on countries with large and young populations, coming from a low economic base. We expect strong structural growth for decades in these markets, mainly driven by a growing middle class. Key markets for the fund are Vietnam, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Egypt and Nigeria. Strong population growth leads to rapid urbanisation and heavy investments in infrastructure. The fund is managed according to Tundra’s active stock picking philosophy and backed by local research offices in Asia. Investments are based on an ESG approach where each investment has to comply with the UN Global Compact
with regards to human rights, labour rights, corporate governance and environmental impacts. The fund is registered in Sweden and is fully UCITS compliant.
