Tap into a wider range of RI strategies
Responsible investing is traditional investing with a tweak. On top of looking at the issuing companies’ financial performance, it also looks at extra-financial factors that are more likely to offer sustainable growth.
SocieTerra Portfolios and Funds stand out for the range of extra-financial strategies their managers use.

What does ESG mean?
On top of a strictly financial analysis, responsible investing incorporates three additional factors:
-
Environmental: What the company does to protect the environment. Example: reduction of greenhouse gases.
-
Social: How the company manages its relationship with its employees, vendors, clients and the communities it operates in. Example: working conditions.
-
Governance: The company’s leadership, executive compensation, internal controls and shareholder rights. Example: executive compensation.
