Fund Overview
About the Fund
The IMGA Portuguese Corporate Debt Fund offers conservative exposure to corporate bonds and commercial paper issued mainly by Portuguese companies. It’s designed for investors seeking steady, lower-volatility returns, daily liquidity, and a strategy built around high-quality issuers with a strong foothold in Portugal’s real economy.
The IMGA Portuguese Corporate Debt Fund is an open-ended fixed-income strategy focused on capturing stable returns through carefully selected corporate bonds and commercial paper, with a clear emphasis on the Portuguese market. At least 65% of the portfolio is invested in companies domiciled in Portugal, while a minimum of 80% must be allocated to private-sector debt, giving the fund a strong national orientation without abandoning diversification across other European issuers when appropriate. The portfolio is actively managed, using detailed evaluations of individual companies along with a wider economic perspective to find businesses that have strong finances, reliable income, and reasonable levels of debt. The outcome is a mix of credit that mostly includes high-quality investments, along with cash-like assets and a careful use of derivatives only for protection. All share classes are capitalised, so the income generated by the underlying securities is automatically reinvested, making the fund suitable for investors who prefer long-term compounding over periodic distributions. The fund allows investors to buy and sell shares daily, making it easy to access, similar to UCITS-style funds, while keeping a low risk level, usually rated as level 2 on a scale from 1 to 7. Volatility has remained low since launch, reflecting the fund’s focus on high-quality corporate issuers, disciplined duration management, and tight oversight of concentration and liquidity risk. The fund is also available in a dedicated Golden Visa share class, which aligns with Portugal’s post-2023 residency rules by maintaining a high allocation to national companies. Combined with a five-year recommended horizon and the manager’s long track record in Portuguese fixed income, the fund sits as a practical option for investors seeking stability, transparency, and exposure to the country’s corporate credit landscape.

Frequently Asked Questions
The fund focuses on corporate bonds and commercial paper issued mainly by Portuguese companies. It stays heavily weighted toward national issuers while keeping a small sleeve for broader Eurozone credit to maintain diversification.
Yes. The fund sits in a low-risk category (typically risk class 2/7). Returns tend to be steady rather than volatile, making it appropriate for investors who want predictable income-style exposure without equity-level swings.
It’s an open-ended, daily-dealing fund. Orders are processed at the next available NAV, and settlement normally happens within six business days.
No. All share classes reinvest interest and coupon payments back into the NAV. Investors benefit through long-term compounding rather than periodic distributions.
The strategy aims for moderate, bond-like returns. Early performance shows annualised figures in the 3%–4% range, although future results depend on credit spreads and interestrate conditions.
The Golden Visa Category G class has a higher minimum entry and includes a 3.5% early-exit fee during the first five years to align with Portugal’s ARI residency rules. The underlying portfolio is the same across classes.
Yes. Its mandate requires investing at least 65% of assets in companies based in Portugal, which satisfies the “capitalisation of national companies” requirement under the updated residency framework.
The key risks are corporate credit risk, interest-rate changes, and economic exposure to Portuguese issuers. While volatility is low, bond prices can still fluctuate, and capital is not guaranteed.
The portfolio typically includes issuers from banking, utilities, energy, infrastructure, insurance, and other established corporate sectors. Many positions are tied to major Portuguese institutions.
IMGA publishes regular factsheets, audited financial statements, semi-annual reports, and daily NAV data. Investors can track performance and holdings with consistent monthly visibility.
Yes. The fund is classified under SFDR Article 8, meaning ESG considerations are integrated into the credit selection process and certain exclusions apply.
No. As a non-US fund, it is generally treated as a PFIC for US tax purposes, and IMGA does not confirm QEF reporting. U.S. investors should avoid it, unless advised otherwise by a specialised tax professional.
IMGA suggests a five-year horizon. This aligns with the low-volatility profile and, for Golden Visa investors, matches the minimum residency-qualifying investment period.
Yes, it is registered under CMVM ID 1985. The custodian is Millennium BCP (Banco Comercial Português, S.A.).
Management Fee: 1.7%. Performance Fee: None. Subscription Fee: 1.75%.
