ESG and Sustainable Investing strategies

Besides taking into account climate risks in managing clients’ portfolios, we are committed to opening up a world of sustainable investment opportunities for our clients through the development of innovative products.

Being an early mover in the sustainable investing market, our track record in ESG dates back to the launch of our first Socially Responsible Fund back in 2001. With our proprietary ESG database now covering more than 14,000 financial instruments, we are recognised by Morningstar as having ‘made strides forward in integrating ESG aspects within its investment process in recent years and has consolidated an already solid active ownership effort’ and received Morningstar ESG Commitment Level of Advanced1 for a third year running.

They oversee the integration of ESG risks and opportunities across asset classes, as well as the firm’s voting policy and engagement.
