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).

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:

• High returns on capital & strong balance sheets
• Sustainable earnings growth (10%+ target)
• Robust ESG profiles and business models
• Resilience to macro shocks through essential services or productivity-enhancing innovation
