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. This shareclass (I-GBP) is not active yet.

Market developments per 2018-09-30
The Fund decreased in September, outperforming the benchmark. The best performing companies were Amer Sports, Aurelius and Dunelm. Ion Beam, Huhtamaki and Simcorp were the worst performers.
The European small-cap index posted a decline of 1.9% during September. Economic indicators in the region remained mixed. There has been a notable slide in consumer confidence over recent months to its lowest level since May 2017, though still remains high by historical context. The same can be said for sentiment among businesses. This fairly placid economic environment again allowed political headlines to take most focus. Early in the month the fresh round of tariffs from the Trump Administration on Chinese imports continued the Trade War in earnest, while late in the month the budget approval from Italy’s new government stoked fears that the populist leadership won’t back down from aggressive pre-election rhetoric. There has also been little material progress in Brexit negotiations, giving markets little to cheer in sum as we approach the third quarter reporting season.
Norway, Italy and Sweden were the best performing countries during the month, while Denmark, Switzerland and Germany were the worst. Energy, Materials and Financials were the best performing sectors during the month, while Health Care, Information Technology and Telecoms were the worst.

Portfolio developments per 2018-09-30
There were no new purchases or sales in September.
We are seeing an increased focus on tax responsibility in Europe. Certain aggressive tax optimization practices such as loopholes, tax havens and zero tax rates can create reputational risks for companies and their shareholders. International developments over recent years have brought this topic to the fore. The OECD and the G20 countries first approved a complete overhaul of the international tax system, then introduced and signed a multilateral agreement on the exchange of country-by-country tax reports (to which all OECD and G20 members have committed). Within our proprietary ESG questionnaire we ask: Does the company have in place a tax policy/statement that indicates its approach to tax? We have engaged with several companies and continue to encourage transparency on this topic.
Looking forward, European growth appears to have eased from the levels recorded in previous quarters. Politics will remain an important influence on market sentiment – particularly the continuing evolution of Brexit negotiations. This combination of political and economic uncertainty should provide good stock picking opportunities, at attractive valuations, within our favoured universe of quality companies.

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 that we invest in. Our full voting records are available here.
Our 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.
