About This Fund

The fund targets long-term growth, as well as an income that is at least 50% higher than its benchmark of global stocks.

Investors benefit from our established thematic approach to investing. Our integrated ESG screening criteria ensures that stewardship is fully embedded in portfolio construction, and aids risk management.

At this strategy’s core is a simple proposition: it targets high quality businesses that return growing levels of cash in a sustainable manner to investors. It’s an approach that we believe should outperform over the long term.

Sustainable investment labels help investors find products that have a specific sustainability goal.

Whilst the fund incorporates environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations, active ownership and impactful policy outreach, it does not have a defined sustainable goal or objective, therefore this product does not have a UK sustainable investment label.
