About risk

Historical yields are not a guarantee of future returns. A fund can both increase and decrease in value and it is not guaranteed that you will recover the entire invested amount. Note that a fund with risk level 5-7, as stated in the fund's fact sheet (KID), can vary greatly in value due to the fund's composition and management methodology. The prospectus, fund rules and KID are available under each fund. Summary of investors' rights.

The fund is actively managed and invests in equities that are primarily issued by small companies in the U. S. , as well as in Canada and Mexico. As a result, the fund has a currency exposure to these markets.

The thematic investment strategy provides for investments that occur in a limited area in which development is deemed to result in a structural change to the economy and society. This change provides favorable conditions for companies active within the area to create profitable growth over time.

For this fund, the fund company's Enhanced exclusion level applies. For information about sectors that the fund excludes, see the Detailed information tab.

The fund is reported as an Article 8 fund pursuant to EU regulation 2019/2088 on sustainability-related disclosures in the financial services sector (SFDR).

About risk

The risk/return indicator illustrates the link between risk and potential returns from an investment in the fund. The indicator is based on the change in the fund’s value over the past 5 years. Given that the fund does not have five years of historical performance, the risk indicator has been estimated based on the fund’s benchmark index (see above under the heading, Objectives and Investment Focus).

This shareclass belongs to category 4, which means there is a medium risk for up- and downturns in the net asset value. Category 1 does not mean that the fund is risk-free. The fund's risk indicator can change both upwards and downwards on the scale over time, as the indicator is based on historical data that does not guarantee future risk/returns.

An investment in an equity fund is generally characterized by high risk as the value of the equities can fluctuate significantly over time but also has the potential for high returns.

The indicator primarily reflects the upturns and downturns in the value of the fund’s equity investments and fluctuations in exchange rates.

The indicator reflects the most important risks in the fund but excludes the following material risks:

Given that the fund’s investments are concentrated to one region, the fund normally has a higher risk relative to investments that are allocated with a larger geographical distribution and across several regions or countries.

The fund's investment focus entails exposure to smaller companies that frequently have lower liquidity. In general, the variation in liquidity is considered to be higher relative to the equity market overall. This can impact the fund's ability to manage significant outflows at a relatively low cost.

This product does not provide any protection from future market performance. You could therefore lose some or all of your investment.

Additional information about the risks may be found in the prospectus available at www.handelsbanken.se/funds.

Portfolio manager comments — Q2 2025

Fund performance was positive during quarter, rising by 2.3% in SEK. Relative to the fund’s benchmark index*, the fund outperformed. Following a weak start, when President Trump announced a large number of tariffs, equity markets recovered in many areas. The announced tariffs – which were later paused – created challenges for corporate planning and the ability to provide reliable forecasts. What contributed positively in the latter part of the quarter was continued subdued inflation, stable US economic data, and increased clarity regarding tariffs.

At the beginning of the year, concerns grew about the sustainability of investment growth in AI infrastructure. During the second quarter, driven by quarterly reports from leading players, these concerns eased. As a result, and supported by strong reports, holdings such as Comfort Systems, nVent, and Everus Construction contributed positively to fund performance. Jabil and Federal Signal also performed strongly.

Graphic Packaging, Cellebrite, and Cavco posted weaker performance. A weaker macro environment, cautious purchasing behavior, and federal exposure were cited as contributing factors. Quarterly reports that fell short of expectations also negatively impacted share prices. The fund was further weighed down by a weaker US dollar against the Swedish krona.

During the period, the fund added Celsius Holdings, Dexcom, Doximity, and Zoom Communications. Cooper and Verra Mobility were divested.

The fund continues to hold high-quality companies with exposure to structurally strong themes such as re-shoring, electrification, and digitalization.
