The companies in the Dow Jones Euro STOXX 50 Index® constitute the investment universe. The independent OekoTrend Investment Advisory Board, with R. Andreas Kraemer as co-chair, determines the level of each company on the sustainability scale, and its priority and weighting.
In order to achieve the highest possible and steady return on investment, OekoTrend Bonds invests primarily in long Euro bonds, and uses futures contracts and stock options as insurance at time of falling stock markets. During period of rising share prices, this insurance is reduced and a high investment ratio means that investors in the fund profit from bull markets.
