2. SRD AND THE FRC STEWARDSHIP CODE

The UK Stewardship Code (the “Code”) was established by the Financial Reporting Council in 2010. UK authorised asset managers have been required under the rules of the Financial Conduct Authority to produce a statement of commitment to the Code or to explain why it is not appropriate to its business model.

Unlike SRD, which applies to investments in listed equities globally, the Code focuses on investments in UK companies only.

The Firm’s response to the Code detailed in a separate statement, which is available below.

3. THE FIRM’S APPROACH

The Firm deals mainly in fixed-income instruments. We are required to either: • publicly disclose an Engagement Policy and a public statement on an annual basis on how the Engagement Policy has been implemented; or • publicly disclose a clear and reasoned explanation of why the Firm has chosen not to make these disclosures. The Firm has elected to not publicly disclose its Engagement Policy. This is for the following reasons: The Firm does not invest in listed equities as a core strategy. It may invest in listed equities from time-to-time however this is not considered to be an integral component of the investment strategy.
