SEB Concept Biotechnology is a fund with a high risk level that makes active investment decisions, based on analysis and selection, to invest globally, primarily in companies in the biotech sector. Because US companies dominate the sector, the majority of the companies we invest in are in the US. We use an objective and disciplined investment process with a clear valuation element. The fund's focus on larger companies and low valuation gives it a relatively defensive character as compared to the biotech sector as a whole. The biotech sector is characterised by substantial price fluctuations. Diversification and risk awareness are important elements in portfolio construction. We compare the fund's return to the Nasdaq Biotechnology Index, a reinvesting US stock index for the biotechnology sector.
The main categories of financial instruments are equities and equity related instruments.
Derivatives may be used to achieve investment objectives or for hedging. Derivatives are a type of financial instrument, the value of which is derived from underlying financial instruments.
SEB follows the UN Principles for Responsible Investments. The principles guide us in acting and investing responsibly, and promoting good business ethics and governance at SEB and the companies in which we invest.
