Dutch asset manager, Actiam, is to launch a new ESG emerging markets debt fund.

The ACTIAM Sustainable EMD fund will be managed by Ruben Smit and Pim Burggraeve and comes after the launch of the firm’s Sustainable Euro Fixed Income fund earlier in the year. The firm say the new fund will invest in US dollar and euro denominated fixed income government debt from emerging markets and focus on human rights and environmental ESG criteria.
