But how exactly do we turn that belief into an actionable investment strategy that truly helps our clients meet their sustainability goals? Lots of asset managers claim to run sustainable strategies, but there’s a general feeling that some are prone to greenwashing.
We launched our global sustainable equity strategy in 2013. Back then, like many funds around that time, it focused primarily on simple exclusion, such as tobacco and controversial weapons. In January 2017 we reinforced our investment team and refined and developed our focus on sustainability. Since that time the strategy has delivered over 4.2% in alpha per annum to our clients.

And what is the importance of an Article 9 classification and does this mean sacrificing investment returns? Join our live webinar and get answers to these and other questions.
