Angel Japan Small Cap Equity IPC JPY

The Fund seeks to grow your capital and generate income by investing primarily in Japanese equities or equivalent. The Fund is actively managed, adopting an active and selective policy to pick the stocks of Japanese companies. The strategy is growth-oriented. The Investment Manager believes that superior results are best achieved by considering smaller companies with strong management, innovative business models, and niche products as they have sound growth opportunities regardless of the economic environment and might play a vital role in the future and sustainable growth of the Japanese economy. The minimum market capitalization of selected companies will be JPY 10 billion. The Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) investment strategy is based on three pillars: (i) business activities exclusion according to data about harmful activities as welle as breaches with the UBP Responsible Investment policy; (ii) ESG integration to select stocks through the analysis of environmental, social and governance factors; (iii) a preference for stocks with reduced carbon footprint as well as good governance characteristics as assessed by internal research. The Fund also promotes a lower carbon footprint than the MSCI Japan Small Cap Net Total Return Local Index (the "Benchmark"). A performance fee in reference to the Benchmark is applied to some share classes. The Benchmark is not representative of the risk profile of the Fund. The performance of the Fund is likely to be significantly different from that of the Benchmark because the Investment Manager has significant discretion to deviate from its securities and weighting. The Fund’s base currency is JPY. As an equity fund, its holdings can move in line with or return less than the broad stock market, so investors should be aware that the value of their holdings could fall and that they may not get back their initial investment. Any income received by the Fund is reinvested (capitalisation share class). Investors in the Fund can subscribe and redeem units on any business day in Luxembourg except days where the decisive market is closed: Japan (JP). Details of the closing days are available here: https://www.ubp.com/en/ouroffices/ubp-asset-management-europe-sa. The recommended holding period is minimum 5 years.
