With immediate effect, Lloyd Fonds AG will commence selling operations for its first four investment funds comprising two equity funds, one mixed fund and one bond fund. All funds follow an active selection-focused investment process and thus offer clear added value. The funds are available in three unit classes: R (Retail), I (Institutional) and S (Seed). Equity funds: Lloyd Fonds - European Hidden Champions (Unit Class R: DE000A2PB598, Unit Class I: DE000A2PB6A0, Unit Class S: DE000A2PB6B8); Lloyd Fonds - European Quality & Growth (Unit Class R: DE000A2PB6C6, Unit Class I: DE000A2PB6D4, Unit Class S: DE000A2PB6E2).

Lloyd Fonds AG is acting as an advisor for the respective funds. Maximilian Thaler, CFA, (Lloyd Fonds - European Hidden Champions) and Christian Reindl, CFA, (Lloyd Fonds - European Quality & Growth) are responsible for the two equity funds. The focus of the two equity funds is on European equities. Both are investment experts for innovative and high-quality growth companies. The mixed fund Lloyd Fonds - Best of Two Worlds will jointly be operated by Christian Reindl and Dr. Tobias Spies, who is also responsible for the bond fund Lloyd Fonds - Special Yield Opportunities. The fixed income expert prefers to invest in opportunities and special situations arising from inefficiencies. All three fund specialists have a successful track record. Universal Investment GmbH is the capital management company for the four investment funds. The funds are initially open to seed investors from April 1. They will then be launched on a broad basis on May 2, 2019. On this day, Lloyd Fonds AG will also introduce a new face to the market and a new website.
