Objective

The Barings European Loan Fund seeks to provide investors with current income and, where appropriate, capital appreciation.

Strategy

The Barings European Loan Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in senior secured loans, as well as in senior secured notes issued by European companies. The Fund will also invest, to a lesser extent, in senior secured loans and senior bonds issued by North American companies (subject to a limit of 20% of Net Asset Value).

Who Should Invest

The Fund is designed for investors seeking to benefit from a strategy that provides high current income generation and, where appropriate, capital appreciation.

Risks

The value of investments and the income they provide can fall as well as rise and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. The Fund invests in high yield bonds. The value of these investments tends to be more volatile than investment grade bonds.
