About AFRIX

The Invesco Floating Rate ESG Fund Class R5 is a mutual fund that primarily invests in senior secured floating rate loans and debt instruments, with a dedicated focus on integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria into its investment processes. Its central purpose is to provide a high level of current income along with capital preservation, by targeting floating-rate loans made to large companies. These floating-rate instruments adjust their interest payments with market rates, making the fund less sensitive to rising interest rates compared to fixed-income securities. In addition to seeking income and stability, the fund distinguishes itself by using a proprietary framework to evaluate and manage ESG risks, aiming for a responsible and sustainable investment approach. It holds a diversified portfolio of hundreds of positions, with a significant portion allocated to below-investment-grade issuers, backed by collateral to help reduce credit risk. The fund plays a market role as a specialized fixed-income offering, appealing to institutions and investors who seek exposure to bank loans and floating-rate debt, especially in volatile or inflationary interest rate environments, while prioritizing ESG-conscious strategies.
