Why choose the Global Equity Impact Fund?

It allows you to drive positive change by investing for a better future

Investing in companies that focus on delivering positive social and environmental impact gives you the opportunity to drive positive change in the world.

You can align your investments with your values

Impact investing allows you to signal your commitment as a responsible investor, while seeking a financial return. There’s no reason why investors cannot align their values of having a positive social and environmental impact with a positive financial return.

Private capital is needed to address global challenges

The most pressing global problems cannot be solved through charitable donations and government funding alone.  Private capital is required to address many of the global challenges.

Consider this fund if you

  • are seeking the potential for long term capital appreciation

  • are interested in investing in companies that aim to have a positive impact on the world

  • have an investment horizon of at least five years

  • can take risk with your capital

This fund may not be suitable if you

  • do not want to take any risk with your capital

  • have an investment horizon of less than five years

  • are not prepared to accept periods of losses due to the volatile nature of equity markets
