Portfolio
Welcome to Robur’s latest addition to its range of equity funds, Swedbank Robur Security & Defence. The fund’s objective is to generate good long-term returns by investing in companies that contribute to a safer society. The need for security is constantly increasing for nations, companies and individuals alike. The ability to detect, defend and deter applies to both military and cyber security. The technological prowess and innovative capacity of these companies point to long-term structural growth. The strategy is to identify attractive investment opportunities within three defined themes. The first is defence, which includes companies that strengthen nations’ defence capabilities. Here, the fund mainly owns strong niche players or subcontractors. Newer areas such as unmanned vehicles, drones and space are particularly interesting. The second theme, cyber security, is becoming increasingly important as digitalisation and vulnerability increase. The third theme is civil preparedness, which includes companies operating in segments such as surveillance, protection and maintenance of critical infrastructure. The portfolio’s holdings are relatively evenly weighted to ensure good risk diversification. Approximately half are defence companies, while cyber security and civil preparedness each account for a quarter. Geographically, the fund has a focus on the United States but also significant exposure to selected companies in Europe, Canada, Australia and Japan.

Our global equities team invests in the majority of the markets around the world. The fund managers are responsible for their individual funds and select the companies to invest in, at the same time as the entire team works closely together, sharing knowledge and ideas. The team consists of eleven portfolio managers, and they are supported by our sustainability analysts and corporate governance specialists, which gives them a unique and broad basis for their investments.
The actively managed equity funds apply an investment strategy based on analysis of fundamentals. The focus is on the selection of companies, but sector, regional and thematic analyses are also key components of the strategy. The fund managers strive through active management to attain a return that exceeds the average return in the markets where the funds invest, in other words, a return that exceeds the fund’s benchmark index. Our fund managers integrate sustainability as a natural component of the funds’ investment processes.

Sustainable Finance Disclosures
Summary
This financial product promotes environmental or social characteristics, but does not have a sustainable investment objective.
The fund promotes low emissions of carbon dioxide, a net zero target, business strategies that include the UN Global Goals (SDGs), an environmentally more sustainable approach by the activities of companies through Environmental Engagement (E) and an increased social responsibility on the part of companies through Social Engagement (S).
Sustainability and climate work constitute an integrated part of the investment strategy in order to manage sustainability and climate risks and to promote environmental and social characteristics. The fund is obligated to follow the Management Company’s "Policy for Responsible Investments" (adopted by the Board) and uses three overarching methods ("include", "exclude" and "engage") in order to achieve the environmental and social characteristics promoted by the fund. The fund follows the Management Company’s "Principles for Shareholder Engagement" (adopted by the Board). As an active owner, the aim of Swedbank Robur is that the companies we invest in are managed in an efficient and long-term sustainable manner.
There are plans for at least 80% of the fund's assets to consist of investments aligned with environmental or social characteristics.
The Management Company’s risk function monitors and checks that the environmental or social characteristics that the fund promotes are complied with. The risk function also performs a quarterly follow-up and analysis of the metrics the Management Company has selected to measure how the fund’s investments promote environmental or social characteristics.
In order to measure the attainment of the environmental and social characteristics that the fund promotes, the sustainability indicators weighted average carbon dioxide intensity (equity & credits), net zero target, SDG aligned revenues, Environmental Engagement (E) and Social Engagement (S) are used.
Swedbank Robur uses several sources in its process to measure how funds promote environmental and social characteristics. Swedbank Robur purchases data from major data providers that have demonstrated a robust method for guaranteeing the quality of data. In order to guarantee the quality of the data purchased, the supplier's data and product range are reviewed. When there is an opportunity, test data is taken from several providers offering the same product in order to compare as large a selection as possible.
There are a number of limitations with the models and data being currently used. The main limitation is the number of asset allocations for which metric calculation methods exist. The coverage is generally good for the funds, where a mix between reported and estimated data is used. Furthermore, Swedbank Robur believes that the method used by the data provider for estimating data is reliable.
The Management Company has due diligence procedures in place in order to ensure that sustainability risks and the sustainability requirements established for the fund are taken into consideration in the investment decision. Sustainability analysis is an integrated part of the fund management’s investment process. In order to manage sustainability risks and integrate the risks in investment decisions, the fund management follows the procedures that the Management Company describes in the Management Company’s "Strategy to include" and "Strategy to exclude". The Management Company’s risk function performs a daily inspection to determine whether the fund’s holdings fulfil its sustainability requirements and regulations regarding exclusion.
The fund follows the Management Company's "Principles for Shareholder Engagement" (adopted by the Board). In the event of sustainability-related controversies in invested companies, Swedbank Robur has special procedures and processes to monitor and follow up with the company. Both dialogue work and voting are key tools to try to prevent and respond to sustainability-related controversies.

Dette finansielle produktet fremmer miljømessige eller samfunnsmessige egenskaper, men har ikke et bærekraftig investeringsmål. Fondet fremmer lave utslipp av karbondioksid, et netto null mål, forretningsstrategier som inkluderer FNs globale mål (SDG-er), en miljømessig mer bærekraftig tilnærming ved selskapenes aktiviteter gjennom Miljøengasjement (Environmental Engagement (E)) og et økt samfunnsansvar fra selskapenes side gjennom Sosialt engasjement (Social Engagement (S) Bærekraft og klimaarbeid er en integrert del av investeringsstrategien vår for å kunne håndtere bærekraft og klimarelaterte risikoer samt fremme miljømessige og samfunnsmessige egenskaper. Fondet er forpliktet til å følge forvaltningsselskapets «Retningslinjer for ansvarlig investering» (vedtatt av styret) og bruker tre overordnede metoder («include», «exclude» og «engage», dvs. «inkludere», «ekskludere» og «engasjere») for å oppnå de miljømessige og samfunnsmessige egenskapene fremmet av fondet. Fondet følger forvaltningsselskapets «Prinsipper for aksjonærengasjement» (vedtatt av styret). Som en aktiv eier har Swedbank Robur som mål at selskapene vi investerer i forvaltes på en effektiv og langsiktig bærekraftig måte. Det planlegges for at minst 80% av fondets eiendeler skal bestå av investeringer som er tilpasset miljømessige eller sosiale egenskaper. Forvaltningsselskapets risikofunksjon overvåker og kontrollerer at de miljømessige eller samfunnsmessige egenskapene som fondet fremmer, er oppfylt. Risikofunksjonen utfører også en kvartalsvis oppfølging og analyse av beregningene forvaltningsselskapet har valgt for å måle hvordan fondets investeringer fremmer miljømessige eller samfunnsmessige egenskaper. In order to measure the attainment of the environmental and social characteristics that the fund promotes, the sustainability indicators weighted average carbon dioxide intensity (equity & credits), net zero target, SDG aligned revenues, Environmental Engagement (E) and Social Engagement (S) are used. Swedbank Robur bruker flere kilder i prosessen for å måle hvordan fond fremmer miljømessige og samfunnsmessige egenskaper. Swedbank Robur kjøper opplysninger fra store dataleverandører som har demonstrert en robust metode for å garantere kvaliteten på opplysningene. For å garantere kvaliteten på kjøpte data, gjennomgås leverandørens data og produktserie. Når det er mulig, hentes testdata fra flere leverandører som tilbyr samme produkt, for å sammenligne et så stort utvalg som mulig. Det finnes en rekke begrensninger for modellene og opplysningene som brukes for øyeblikket. Hovedbegrensningen er antallet aktivaallokeringer som det finnes beregningsmetoder for. Dekningen er generelt god for fondene, der en blanding mellom rapporterte og estimerte data brukes. Dessuten mener Swedbank Robur at metoden som brukes av dataleverandøren for å estimere data, er pålitelig. Forvaltningsselskapet har prosedyrer for selskapsgjennomgang for å sikre at det tas hensyn til bærekraftsrisiko og bærekraftskrav fastsatt for fondet under investeringsbeslutningen. Bærekraftanalyse er en integrert del av fondsforvaltningens investeringsprosess. For å håndtere bærekraftsrisikoer og integrere risiko i investeringsbeslutninger, følger fondsforvaltningen prosedyrene som forvaltningsselskapet beskriver i fondsselskapets strategi for inkludering og strategi for ekskludering. Forvaltningselskapets risikofunksjon utfører en daglig inspeksjon for å avgjøre om fondets beholdninger oppfyller egne bærekraftkrav og forskrifter om ekskludering. Fondet følger forvaltningsselskapets «Prinsipper for aksjonærengasjement» (vedtatt av styret). I tilfelle bærekraftsrelaterte kontroverser i investerte selskaper, har Swedbank Robur spesielle prosedyrer og prosesser for å overvåke og følge opp selskapet. Både dialogarbeid og votering er viktige verktøy for å forebygge og respondere på bærekraftsrelaterte kontroverser.

Tämä rahoitustuote edistää ympäristöön liittyviä tai yhteiskunnallisia ominaisuuksia, mutta sillä ei ole kestävää investointitavoitetta.
Rahasto edistää alhaisia hiilidioksidipäästöjä, nettonollatavoitetta, YK:n maailmanlaajuiset tavoitteet sisältäviä liiketoimintastrategioita, ritysten ympäristöä kestävämpää lähestymistapaa ympäristösitoumuksen (Environmental Engagement, E) kautta ja yritysten sosiaalisen vastuun lisäämistä sosiaalisen sitoumuksen (Social Engagement, S) kautta.
Kestävyys- ja ilmastotyö on integroitu osa sijoitusstrategiaa, jolla pyritään hallitsemaan kestävyys- ja ilmastoriskejä ja edistämään ympäristöllisiä ja yhteiskunnallisia ominaisuuksia. Rahasto on velvollinen noudattamaan rahastoyhtiön vastuullisen sijoittamisen politiikkaa (jonka hallitus on hyväksynyt), ja se käyttää kolmea yleistä menetelmää ("sisällyttää", "sulkea pois" ja "sitouttaa") saavuttaakseen rahaston edistämät ympäristöön ja yhteiskuntaan liittyvät ominaisuudet. Rahasto noudattaa rahastoyhtiön " Osakkeenomistajien sitouttamista koskevat periaatteet" -ohjeistuksia (jonka hallitus on hyväksynyt). Aktiivisena omistajana Swedbank Roburin tavoitteena on, että yhtiöitä, joihin sijoitamme, johdetaan tehokkaasti ja kestävästi pitkällä aikavälillä.
Suunnitelmissa on, että vähintään 80% rahaston varoista koostuisi sijoituksista, joilla on ympäristöön liittyviä tai yhteiskunnallisia ominaisuuksia.
Rahastoyhtiön riskitoiminto valvoo ja tarkistaa, että rahaston edistämiä ympäristöllisiä tai yhteiskunnallisia ominaisuuksia noudatetaan. Riskitoiminto suorittaa myös neljännesvuosittaisen seurannan ja analyysin niistä mittareista, jotka rahastoyhtiö on valinnut mittaamaan, miten rahaston sijoitukset edistävät ympäristöön tai yhteiskuntaan liittyviä ominaisuuksia.
In order to measure the attainment of the environmental and social characteristics that the fund promotes, the sustainability indicators weighted average carbon dioxide intensity (equity & credits), net zero target, SDG aligned revenues, Environmental Engagement (E) and Social Engagement (S) are used.
Swedbank Robur käyttää prosessissaan useita lähteitä sen mittaamiseksi, miten rahastot edistävät ympäristöön liittyviä ja yhteiskunnallisia ominaisuuksia. Swedbank Robur ostaa tietoja suurilta tietojen tarjoajilta, jotka ovat osoittaneet vankan menetelmän tietojen laadun takaamiseksi. Ostettujen tietojen laadun takaamiseksi toimittajan tiedot ja tuotevalikoima tarkistetaan. Mahdollisuuden tullen testitietoja otetaan useilta samaa tuotetta tarjoavilta tarjoajilta, jotta voidaan vertailla mahdollisimman suurta valikoimaa.
Tällä hetkellä käytössä oleviin malleihin ja tietoihin liittyy useita rajoituksia. Pääasiallinen rajoitus on niiden varojen allokointien määrä, joita varten metrisiä laskentamenetelmiä on olemassa. Kattavuus on yleensä hyvä rahastojen osalta, joissa käytetään sekä raportoituja että arvioituja tietoja. Lisäksi Swedbank Robur uskoo, että tietojen toimittajan käyttämä menetelmä tietojen arvioimiseksi on luotettava.
Rahastoyhtiöllä on käytössä due diligence -menettelyt sen varmistamiseksi, että kestävyysriskit ja rahastolle asetetut kestävyysvaatimukset otetaan huomioon sijoituspäätöksissä. Kestävän kehityksen analyysi on kiinteä osa rahaston johdon sijoitusprosessia. Kestävyysriskien hallitsemiseksi ja riskien sisällyttämiseksi sijoituspäätöksiin rahaston johto noudattaa menettelyjä, jotka rahastoyhtiö kuvaa rahastoyhtiön "Sisällyttävässä strategiassa" ja "Poissulkevassa strategiassa". Rahastoyhtiön riskitoiminto tarkastaa päivittäin, täyttävätkö rahaston omistukset rahaston kestävyysvaatimukset ja poissulkemista koskevat säännökset.
Rahasto noudattaa rahastoyhtiön "Osakkeenomistajien sitouttamista koskevat periaatteet" -ohjeistuksia (jonka hallitus on hyväksynyt). Jos sijoituskohteena olevissa yrityksissä ilmenee kestävyyteen liittyviä kiistoja, Swedbank Roburilla on erityisiä menettelyjä ja prosesseja, joiden avulla se voi valvoa ja seurata yrityksen toimintaa. Sekä vuoropuhelutyöskentely että äänestäminen ovat keskeisiä välineitä pyrittäessä ehkäisemään kestävyyteen liittyviä kiistoja ja vastaamaan niihin.
