Risk 2/7

The risk indicator provides guidance on the risk level for this product relative to other financial products. It shows the likelihood that the product will decrease in value due to market performance. Risk level 1 represents a low risk and risk level 7 is a high risk.

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 2, which means there is a low 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.

The risk in a fixed income fund is due in part to the average fixed interest duration on the fund’s holdings, i.e., the fund’s interest rate risk. The fund normally consists of holdings with a longer fixed interest duration, which results in a higher interest rate risk.

The indicator primarily reflects the upturns and downturns in the value of the fund’s holdings in interest-bearing securities and currency fluctuations.

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

The fund has exposure to credit risk, i.e., the risk that an issuer is unable to meet its commitments. The credit risk is derived from the issuer’s credit worthiness. The fund’s investments include assets with low credit worthiness, so-called high yield.

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 — Q3 2024

Fund performance was positive during Q3 and the fund rose 2% in SEK. During the autumn several central banks cut their key rates and also communicated that several cuts would occur during the upcoming year. The US central bank cut its key rate by 0.5% in September to stimulate growth in the domestic economy. As expected, the Swedish Riksbank also cut the repo rate by 0.25% and the market is expecting at least two additional rate cuts during the year. Both the US and the Swedish central banks believe that the risk for inflation is under control, which opens the door for further rate cuts ahead.

The strongest performers during the quarter were corporate bonds with a slightly higher credit risk, so-called High Yield. We continue to believe that these investments offer attractive risk-adjusted returns and are retaining our position. The portfolio has a neutral duration in the holdings and continues to hold an overweight in corporate credits and emerging market bonds.
