Aristea SICAV - SHORT TERM - R - EUR - Cap./  LU1121101270  /

The investment objective of the Sub-Fund is to deliver a return greater than money market interest rates with a maturity of up to 12 months. To achieve this objective, the Sub-Fund will invest in short term cash deposits opened with institutions offering higher yields. Issuer selection will be based on in-house bottom-up analysis focusing on an in-depth review of the counterparty balance sheet, including standard credit metrics (such as leverage, liquidity, exposure to non-performing loans, sector exposure) and non-standard, proprietary metrics. In particular, the risk level of every issuer is measured and stress tested against a scenario of default, using a proprietary measure defined "Distance to Deposit Default" in percentage (DDD%) that takes into account the capital stack available for bail-in before deposits.
