Benefits & Risks
Benefits
- Profit from the worldwide growth of the healthcare sector, which has clearly outpaced the growth of global GDP during the past ten years.
- Take advantage of the positive characteristics of the healthcare sector and generate alpha through a bottom-up selection process and factor allocation strategies.
- Strategic overweighting of the “structural growth” factor and underweighting of blue-chip pharmaceutical stocks.
- Low earnings risk – above-average earnings growth, even in crisis years, leading to stable portfolio components.
- Bellevue – healthcare pioneer since 1993 and today one of the biggest independent investors in the sector in Europe.
Risks
- The fund actively invests in equities. Equities are subject to strong price fluctuations and so are also exposed to the risk of price losses.
- The fund may invest a proportion of its assets in financial instruments that might under certain circumstances have a relatively low level of liquidity, which can in turn affect the fund’s liquidity.
- The fund invests in foreign currencies, which means a corresponding degree of currency risk against the reference currency.
- Investing in emerging markets entails the additional risk of political and social instability.
- The fund may engage in derivatives transactions. The increased opportunities gained come with an increased risk of losses.
