SHADX Investment Objective and Strategy
Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Debt Allocation Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Stone Harbor Investment Funds.
Investment objective
The Fund seeks to maximize total return, which consists of income on its investments and capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund will normally invest, either directly or through the underlying funds (defined below), at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings made for investment purposes) in Emerging Markets Investments. Emerging Markets Investments include fixed income securities and derivative instruments (including, but not limited to, spot and currency contracts, futures, options and swaps) that economically are tied to an emerging market country or whose performance is linked to those countries currencies, markets, economies or ability to repay loans. A security or instrument is economically tied to an emerging market country if it is principally traded on the countrys securities markets or the issuer is organized or principally operates in the country, derives a majority of its income from its operations within the country or has a majority of its assets within the country.
Emerging Markets Investments may be denominated in the U.S. Dollar or the predominant currency of the local market of an emerging market country (an Emerging Markets Currency). Emerging Markets Investments also include Emerging Markets Currencies and derivatives and other instruments used to hedge or gain exposure to emerging securities markets or Emerging Markets Currencies (for example, futures or other derivatives whose return is based on specific emerging markets securities, emerging markets indices or Emerging Markets Currencies). The Fund may use derivatives to a significant extent. The Fund may invest all or a significant portion of its assets in the Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Debt Fund and Stone Harbor Local Markets Fund (together, the underlying funds). The Fund expects that under normal circumstances approximately 50% of the Funds assets will be invested in the Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Debt Fund and approximately 50% of the Funds assets will be invested in the Stone Harbor Local Markets Fund.
The Fund is not required to invest in the underlying funds. The allocations in the underlying funds listed above may vary from time to time depending on market conditions and there may be times the Fund is not invested in any underlying fund. In addition to investing in the underlying funds, the Fund may invest directly in fixed income securities and other instruments and transactions. References in this Prospectus to the Fund may refer to actions undertaken or investments held by the Fund or by an underlying fund. The underlying funds listed above are described elsewhere in this Prospectus. The Adviser has broad discretion to identify and invest in countries that it considers to qualify as emerging securities markets. The Adviser generally considers emerging market countries to include countries identified by the World Bank Group as being low income economies or which are included in a JP Morgan emerging market bond index.
It is anticipated that the Fund will focus most of its investments in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and/or the developing countries of Europe. The Funds investments may include, among other things, sovereign debt securities, corporate debt securities, structured notes, convertible securities, securities issued by supranational organizations, floating rate commercial loans, securitized loan participations, Rule 144A securities, non-U.S. currencies, forward currency contracts and other foreign currency transactions and derivatives related to these types of investments. The Fund seeks capital appreciation through country selection, sector selection, security selection and currency selection. In selecting Emerging Markets Investments for investment, the Adviser will apply a market risk analysis contemplating the assessment of various factors, such as liquidity, volatility, tax implications, interest rate sensitivity, counterparty risks, economic factors, currency exchange rates and technical market conditions.
Credit Quality. The Fund may invest in securities of any credit rating (including unrated securities) and may invest without limit in higher risk, below-investment grade debt securities, commonly referred to as high yield securities or junk bonds. Maturity and Duration. The Adviser normally maintains an average portfolio duration of between 2 and 7 years. However, the Funds average duration may be outside this range, and the Fund may invest in securities of any duration and maturity.
