Sustainable Growth Fund
The Sustainable Growth Fund invests in sustainable growth companies. It mitigates environmental, social and governance (ESG) risks by applying 'sin sector' exclusions. It then seeks to identify ESG opportunities by focusing on companies that our research suggests are a net benefit to society, which balance the interests of all stakeholders, and which exhibit a responsible culture.
Worldwide Sustainable Growth Fund

The Fund excludes companies from certain industries and companies which are inconsistent with the United Nations Global Compact Principles for Business.
