Essential management characteristics: International Equities Fund The investment objective of the Sub-Fund is to seek performance by taking advantage of developments in the equity markets without geographical constraint (including emerging markets) which benefit from the digital transformation of industries and society, over the recommended investment term of 5 years. In this context, the Sub-Fund implements active conviction management by selecting companies eligible to the investment theme. These companies are chosen for their quality of global or local leaders on their respective markets analyzed through the systematic integration of environmental, social / societal and governance (ESG) criteria (such as energy consumption, CO2 emission), or even ethical practices of society.

The Sub-Fund invests at least 75% of its net assets in shares of companies occupying a position of global or local leader in their markets and operating in the technology sectors, in sectors benefiting from growing digitalization and technological innovations. In this context, the Sub-Fund implements active conviction management using a "Quality GARP" (Quality Growth at a Reasonable Price) and SRI approach. Through the Quality GARP approach, the Management Company proceeds in two stages: (i) for each company analyzed, the Management Company assesses the quality of the business model, management and balance sheet. One scoring out of 20 summarizes the assessment of the quality of the company analyzed. Any company with a score lower than 10 is excluded from the "Quality" investment universe, and (ii) , in order to determine their universe of responsible quality investment, the Management Company assesses the ESG profile of the companies previously selected. The Management Company uses a proprietary ESG analysis approach with the "best in universe" method. There is a risk that this data is incorrect, insufficient or missing. There may be a sector bias.
