All Lannebo funds integrate sustainability as part of the investment process, whereas sustainability has a pivotal role for Lannebo Sverige Hållbar. The fund, like all Lannebo mutual funds, is actively managed whereby the fund managers select shares according to their own analysis and assessment of companies they believe in long-term.
Lannebo Sverige Hållbar is an actively managed equity fund that invests primarily in the Swedish stock market and can invest up to 10 per cent in other Nordic countries. The fund is a so-called all-cap fund that can invest in all sizes of listed companies.
Dividend
This shareclass provides an annual dividend of at least 5 per cent of the fund’s assets at year end, meeting the needs of institutional investors such as foundations and endowment funds. The dividend will be paid in January unless re-investing in new shares has been requested. Please note that dividends will only accrue to unitholders with dividend class units held at the end of the previous year and who retain the entire holding through the end of January the following year.
The fund is suitable for those who
- want to invest in companies that have the best sustainable business practices and contribute to a more sustainable society through their products and services
- believe in active management and investments based on a clear understanding of each individual company
- want to avoid investments in fossil fuel, tobacco, alcohol, weapons, gambling or pornography
Other
On December 20, 2018, Lannebo Utdelningsfond became Lannebo Sverige Hållbar. Sustainability is an integral part of the investment process for all Lannebo funds, whereas sustainability is even more central for Lannebo Sverige Hållbar – in addition to the exclusionary criteria already in place for Lannebo Utdelningsfond. In connection with the change, the fund was also converted from a special fund to a mutual fund.
