The Fund is actively managed. The benchmark MSCI AC Asia ex-Japan (NR) is used for performance comparison only. The Fund is not benchmark constrained and its performance may deviate significantly from that of the benchmark. The Fund seeks to increase the value of its assets over the medium term by investing in shares issued by socially responsible Asian companies, and/or companies operating in Asia (excluding Japan) with a solid financial structure and/or potential for earnings growth. It may be invested in Mainland China shares restricted to foreign investors such as China A shares which can be listed on a Stock Connect or through a use of a specific license granted by the Chinese authorities. The investment team applies also BNP PARIBAS ASSET MANAGEMENT"s sustainable Investment Policy, which takes into account Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) criteria such as but not limited to reduction of emissions of greenhouse gas, respect of human rights, respect of minority shareholders rights, at each step of the investment process of the Fund. The Fund follows the Enhanced ESG approach which means that the Fund implements more explicit ESG tilts (Invest in the most sustainable companies according to specific criteria and/or incorporating a wider range of exclusions) leading to more stringent ESG and/or Carbon performance targets. The approach is implemented in order to consistently achieve a portfolio's ESG score higher than the ESG score of the index after eliminating at least 20% of securities with the lowest ESG Score. An extra-financial strategy may comprise methodological limitations such as the ESG Investment Risk as defined by the asset manager.
