2019. May 16. 16:29
London, Zurich, 16 May, 2019 (APA/OTS) - The global investment and
advisory firm ThomasLloyd announced that it is cooperating with
Allfunds, one of the world's leading distributors of investment
funds. Following the signing of a global framework agreement
relating to ThomasLloyd´s fund suite earlier this year, as of
today, the ThomasLloyd SICAV-Sustainable Infrastructure Income Fund
(SIIF) is accessible via the Allfunds open architecture fund
platform.
The new open-ended Alternative Investment Fund (AIF) is
domiciled in Luxembourg, structured as a SICAV SA (UCI Part II) and
subject to the UCITS V Directive depositary regime. The SIIF
represents the world's first fully regulated, open-ended public
infrastructure fund and is available in 26 dedicated share classes
for both retail and institutional investors. Options include a
choice of nine currencies available as accumulating or distributing
share classes.
The Fund invests directly in unlisted infrastructure assets in
the areas of renewable energy, utilities, transport, social
infrastructure and communications with a geographic focus on
Asia-Pacific; applying socially responsible investment principles
(SRI) whilst reducing investment risks through diversification
across countries, sectors, technologies and investment styles.
Authorised for sale throughout Europe and a selection of other
countries worldwide, SIIF offers investors convenient, direct and
instant access to a particularly attractive asset class.
ThomasLloyd's pure-play impact investment strategy is based on
an international award-winning process, and is aimed at an
increasing number of global investors who are seeking a capital
investment that is guaranteed to make a positive ecological and
social impact, in addition to its economic objective. The Fund
offers first-time access for private and professional investors to
an asset class previously only available to few institutional
investors globally with extensive in-house experience in the
sector. Since launch of the portfolio in January 2011 the
investment strategy has enjoyed double-digit annual rates of return
whilst simultaneously offering low volatility.
ThomasLloyd Chairman and Group CEO, Michael Sieg, commented:
"Offering our open-ended AIF on the global Allfunds fund platform
creates a win-win situation. By investing with ThomasLloyd, an
accredited partner of the IFC, institutional and private investors
can benefit both from our investment expertise in the evolving
asset class of infrastructure and add substantially to their ESG
quotas in their investment portfolios. At the same time,
ThomasLloyd significantly increases its distribution reach by
joining this powerful global network."
