About DEDIX

Macquarie Emerging Markets Debt Corporate Fund Class Institutional is a mutual fund focused on **income-oriented exposure to emerging‑markets corporate bonds**. The strategy seeks current income, with a secondary goal of capital appreciation, by investing predominantly in interest‑bearing debt issued by companies across developing economies, including securities denominated in both developed‑market and emerging‑market currencies. Managed by Macquarie Asset Management’s dedicated emerging markets debt team, the approach is **research‑driven and actively managed**, combining global macro, sovereign, and bottom‑up corporate analysis to identify relative value and mispricings across countries, industries, and issuers, with ESG factors integrated into credit assessment. The fund resides in the **Emerging Markets Bond** category, holds a diversified portfolio across more than a hundred positions, and targets institutional investors seeking diversified credit exposure beyond developed markets. It has an inception dating back to 2013 and employs a disciplined process intended to navigate the heterogeneous, semi‑efficient nature of EM corporate credit markets.
