Screening (except economy):
Environmental  performance

Key Characteristics:
Registered in Hong Kong and investing globally, the Allianz RCM Global Eco Trends Fund offers access to three environment-related sectors: (1) "EcoEnergy" e.g., alternative energy and energy efficiency, (2) "Pollution Control" e.g., environmental quality, waste management and recycling, and (3) "Clean Water" e.g., water treatment and supply. The fund seeks for companies throughout the whole supply-chain of the above-mentioned sectors, as well as companies expanding into those sectors. Fund managers look at research reports on these companies and frequently interview corporate management. In addition, the fund also applies the bottom-up approach looking at issues such as growth potential, financials and the state of cash flow of the target companies. The fund is an "interval" fund, a type of closed-end fund designed to give flexibility in managing underlying assets, so that the manager can invest a greater portion of the fund's assets in smaller, potentially less liquid securities, which are part of the fund's investment universe.
