Sustainability-
rating

The sustainability rating is developed by the fund information company Morningstar. The rating measures how well the fund's investee companies manage sustainability risks relative to other funds within the same global Morningstar category. If the fund has invested in government bonds issued by sovereign states, the respective country's sustainability risk is included in the calculation. The analyzed funds can receive a sustainability rating between 1 and 5 globes, with 5 as the highest rating.

The fund complies with the UN Principles for Responsible Investments.

 
The EU’s SFDR regulation (regulation 2019/2088 on sustainability-related disclosures in the financial services sector) was implemented in 2021 and provides for a standardization in the sustainability reporting for mutual funds. This has reduced the need for other sustainability labels. Accordingly, Handelsbanken Fonder has chosen to remove the fund’s Nordic Swan ecolabel license from December 17.

Portfolio manager comments — Q3 2025
Global equity markets performed strongly during the third quarter, supported by positive earnings reports, a stable macroeconomic environment, and increased inflows of risk‑seeking capital. Following the Federal Reserve’s meeting in Jackson Hole, market expectations for additional and larger interest rate cuts strengthened, further boosting risk appetite. During August and September, share price momentum accelerated in many stocks that had already posted strong gains earlier in the year – particularly within areas such as artificial intelligence, nuclear energy, quantum technology, and cryptocurrencies. The renewed outlook for lower interest rates also benefited higher‑risk segments such as unprofitable technology and biotechnology, as well as cyclical sectors including construction and cement.

These market trends proved unfavorable for the fund’s relative performance, which failed to match its benchmark index. The fund does not invest in companies at the highest end of the risk spectrum, and several of its stable, high‑quality holdings were sold off despite delivering strong earnings reports. For example, the narrative around AI’s impact on the software industry adversely affected parts of the portfolio. The largest detractors from performance were Tradeweb, Synopsys, Jack Henry, Tyler Technologies, and SAP.

The strongest positive contributions came from the electrification theme, linked to significant investments in data center expansion. Holdings such as Prysmian, Nextracker, Accelleron, Quanta Services, and ABB all performed well. The fund’s exposure to the largest U.S. technology companies – Alphabet, Apple, Nvidia, and Broadcom – also contributed positively.

During the quarter, the fund exited its positions in Brown & Brown, Synopsys, and Sprout Farmers Market. New positions include Thermo Fisher (a U.S. medical technology company), JP Morgan (a global bank with a strong market position), Arista Networks (networking solutions for data centers and cloud services), and Tencent (a leading IT company in China).
