UFG Debt Fund Ltd. is a Cayman Islands-exempted company. The Fund is denominated in US dollars.
Fund Objective
Fund aims to achieve high fixed income returns by investing in short-to-medium term rouble and other local CIS currency corporate debt that is at least 75% investment grade (BBB-), as well as by active management of RUB exposure.
Investment Strategy
Strategy expects to benefit from falling domestic yields on the back of slowing inflation and expanded employment of collateralized refinancing facilities by the Central Bank of Russia. Strategy also expects and may benefit from medium term ruble appreciation against major crosses as Russia economy recovers and current account remains surplus.
Strategy will seek to invest at least 75% of the assets of the Fund into debt securities rated BBB- or higher or debt securities eligible for inclusion in a central bank refinancing program (for example, Central Bank of Russia Repo and Lombard lists).
