Sustainable Investing

Act. Ecological sense never made more financial sense

Empowering our clients to invest for a sustainable future.

As a responsible asset manager, we actively invest for the long term to help our clients prosper and to secure a thriving future for people and the planet. Climate change, and the response to it, are perhaps the most pressing challenges as we pursue that goal.

As a responsible asset manager, we actively invest for the long term to help our clients prosper and to secure a thriving future for people and the planet. Climate change, and the response to it, are perhaps the most pressing challenges as we pursue that goal.

Governments around the world are seeking to limit global warming by aligning economies with the goals of the 2015 Paris Agreement (COP 21). This change has gathered momentum behind growth that follows a lower emissions model, with major companies making carbon neutral commitments and green bond issuance on the rise. This brings risks and opportunities for businesses – and for investors.

These developments are changing how we analyse and assess companies and sovereigns – and influencing how we seek to optimise portfolios for clients through responsible and impact investing. In our opinion,  ecological sense has never made more financial sense. Investing in companies and projects that are leading the way to a more sustainable world not only helps us reach a net-zero economy by 2050, but can deliver more sustainable returns in the future.

As a result, we think the time is right for investors to take action, and we have the tools and knowledge to help them do so with our ACT range of equity, fixed income and multi-asset funds.

Be invested in better. Invest for a sustainable future, now.
