Responsible investing

We employ a strategy of integration and company engagement/voting, meaning our team researches the companies we invest in and actively checks for any environmental, social or governance (ESG) risks that may apply. It helps our Portfolio Manager develop an understanding of each company, and influences not only whether we invest in companies, but also how much. This fund also includes negative screening to remove companies whose business activities may lead to significant harm. The Fund has exclusions including: large carbon emitters, alcohol, gambling, munitions, adult entertainment, nuclear armaments, firearms, tobacco and recreational cannabis, child labour and companies with human and animal rights violations.

Additional information on screening thresholds and processes are outlined in the exclusions section of our ESG Policy.
