Kempen Lux Sustainable European Small-Cap Fund - Class BN
Profile
Kempen International Funds SICAV - Kempen (Lux) Sustainable Small-cap Fund (the Fund) aims to generate strong long-term investment results by investing in a concentrated portfolio of smaller European companies that adhere to strict sustainability criteria integrating environmental, ethical, and social standards.
The Fund is managed on the basis of a bottom-up stock picking strategy that focuses on the identification of high quality companies and special situations. High quality companies have a proven and sustainable competitive advantage which is characterised by strong returns on invested capital, while special situations include companies that will benefit from a restructuring of their cost base or capital structure, a change in management, or for example, new regulation.
The fund manager believes that consistent investment results can be achieved using its investment philosophy that focuses on earnings as a key driver of stock prices in the long run, and change within a company as a catalyst. The Fund only invests when risk and reward are asymmetrically related.
Novethic has certified the Fund with the SRI Label. Novethic Research Centre is a non-profit organisation, that screens sustainable portfolios. Novethic guarantees that labelled funds systematically take into account ESG criteria and that their investment process and composition are transparent.

On 23 October 2013 Kempen SeNSe Fund (KSF) was merged with Kempen (Lux) Sustainable European Small-cap Fund. The results shown of the period before October 2013 are those of KSF. KSF had a similar investment structure and cost structure, but had a different tax regime that could have influenced the returns shown. In November 2013 the rebate free class (BN) of Kempen (Lux) Sustainable European Small-cap Fund was launched. The results shown of the period October 2013 - November 2013 are those of class B of the same fund. The higher management fee of class B has had an impact on the performance quoted.

Performance is shown after deduction of ongoing charges and including the reinvestment of dividend that has been paid out. The value of your investments may fluctuate.

Market developments per 2017-08-31
The portfolio decreased in August, underperforming the benchmark. The best performing positions were Kingspan, Straumann and Greggs. IBA, Dignity and Simcorp were the worst performers. IBA, the market leader in proton therapy, was weak following 1H results. We used the weakness in the share price to buy more stock and believe the long term prospects for proton therapy remain very bright.
The European small-cap index decreased by 0.6% in August. There were several bullish macro data points released in August from both Europe and the US. In Europe, the labour market remains in good health with Eurozone unemployment figures showing further improvement. Germany reported a record low unemployment rate of 3.7%. In the UK Sterling continued to weaken against the Euro as The EU’s Brexit negotiator warned that “no decisive progress†had been made during Brexit talks. In the US, an important market for many of our companies, macro data continued to be good with a better than expected upward revision of US GDP growth and a strong ADP jobs report.
Germany, Ireland and Finland were the best performing countries during the month while Portugal, Switzerland and UK were the weakest. From a sector perspective, healthcare, utilities and telecoms were the strongest performers with energy, financials and consumer discretionary lagging.

Portfolio developments per 2017-08-31
There were no new purchases or sales in August.
This month saw the UK government announce a corporate governance reform package designed to increase boardroom accountability and enhance trust. The two key areas of reform are focussed on Executive Pay and Employee representation. We expect to see many of the reforms to be incorporated into the revised UK Corporate Governance Code. As voting season comes to a close the main engagement governance issues were; independence and diversity of the board, overboarding of representatives, remuneration and auditor rotation.
Looking forward, market focus will likely remain on politics – namely the continuing evolution of Brexit negotiations and the upcoming German elections. Given the greater domestic focus of European small-caps we believe the asset class is well placed to benefit from the tailwind of macroeconomic improvement. In our opinion the Fund is well positioned to outperform due to the winning combination of quality companies at attractive valuations. As bottom up stock pickers, we continue to see good opportunities in the European small-cap space.

KCM Vision
Kempen Capital Management is an asset manager with a long-term investment approach. We strongly believe in engaged shareholdership that benefits all stakeholders. As a long-term responsible investor, we firmly believe that active ownership and shareholder engagement contribute to positive change across the board.
Our KCM wide approach to responsible investment
To put our vision into action we engage with our investment targets on a wide array of strategic, financial, environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics. Our long-term investment worldview paired with thorough analysis and an experienced and diverse ESG team allow us to use both voting and engagement as means to consistently encourage positive change. Through this process of constructive engagement, we are able to contribute to the development of principles and standards of corporate responsibility within companies.
Fund approach to Responsible Investment
Exclude
We exclude certain activities that are not aligned to a sustainable fund. These include alcohol, animal testing, tobacco, pornography, fur, gambling, nuclear energy and thermal coal.
Screen on controversies using MSCI ESG research.
Excludes investment in entities involved in the production of controversial weapons, such as cluster munitions, anti-personnel mines, nuclear warheads, chemical and biological weapons.
Integrate
We will only invest in companies that have either a Provisional or Pass rating
We undertake our own fundamental ESG research on each company then an independent sustainability consultant applies the scores which drive the rating.
If a company receives a Fail rating then we will not invest.
Engage
ESG engagement can enhance performance through increasing upside and mitigating downside risk.
We believe that all companies face material ESG issues and that it is important to address these before investment.
As long-term shareholders it is our fiduciary duty to consistently encourage positive change through engagement and exercising our proxy voting rights.
