SAME QUALITY GROWTH.
ALIGNED WITH EUROPE'S LEADING ESG STANDARDS.
Comgest’s ESG Plus range includes the America ESG Plus, Pan Europe ESG Plus, and Global ESG Plus Equity funds. These funds offer enhanced ESG integration to meet evolving sustainability standards, which builds on our time-tested Quality Growth philosophy. We believe that engaging in responsible investment can strengthen our financial performance as long-term investors and deliver multiple forms of value to our clients.
Meeting Europe’s Leading SRI Labels and regulatory standards
These funds are tailored for investors seeking more ambitious sustainability objectives, including a stricter exclusion policy that covers fossil fuels, controversial weapons, gambling, adult entertainment, and other high-risk sectors. They are also designed to meet the rigorous requirements of leading European SRI labels, such as the Towards Sustainability label (Belgium) and the FNG label (Germany).
Key features of Comgest’s ESG Plus range include:
- Alignment with the ESMA Naming Guidelines
- Application of Paris-Aligned Benchmark (PAB) exclusions
- Over 80% of the portfolio aligned with environmental and/or social characteristics
- Article 8 classification under SFDR
Staying True to Our Quality Growth Investment Approach
Although our ESG Plus funds apply stricter sustainability standards than those of our other funds, they maintain the same disciplined investment process and long-term approach that define Comgest’s Quality Growth investment style. For us, the consideration of both financial and non-financial factors in our fundamental analysis of companies enables our Investment team to perform a more comprehensive assessment of “quality”.
Our investment process focuses on identifying companies with:
The ESG Plus range has an expected average holding period of 5 years, low turnover (10%–20%), and a concentrated portfolio of 25–35 stocks.
For investors seeking long-term growth that complies with the latest European sustainability regulations and labels across US, Pan European and Global equity markets, find out more below.
