Overview

The GMO Emerging Country Debt UCITS Fund’s objective is total return in excess of that of its benchmark, the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Global Diversified Index (EMBIG-D). The Fund invests primarily in external debt of sovereigns and quasi-sovereigns.

GMO’s Emerging Country Debt team focuses on bottom-up issue selection, seeking to find issues with similar default characteristics but better long-term total return potential than the issues in EMBIG-D. We believe that our approach provides long-term, value-oriented clients with the best chance for total return in this asset class and differentiates us from other emerging debt managers who focus on economic forecasting, market timing, and other macro/top-down approaches.
