Sustainable investment
AMP Capital is one of the longest standing sustainable investment managers in Australia. With an eight year track record, we were one of the first managers to systematically integrate sustainability issues with financial analysis.
Sustainable investing aims to invest in companies that meet social, environmental as well as financial performance criteria. As one of the pioneers in Australian sustainability research and investment, AMP Capital has raised sustainable investment to a more sophisticated level by:
- integrating environmental, social and governance (ESG) research into our investment decision making;
- utilising an experienced research team along with financial specialists to manage our portfolios;
- seeking out the value in companies through their intangible assets, revealing a wider range of corporate growth drivers and risk factors; and
- exhibiting transparency and actively engaging with portfolio companies to ensure social and environmental standards are maintained.
We believe that this approach provides an attractive investment proposition to investors - one that facilitates competitive returns and helps provide capital to companies that consider social and environmental issues within their strategy.
Responsible investment certification
The AMP Capital Sustainable Share Fund has been independently certified under Responsible Investment Association Australasia’s Responsible Investment Certification Program. Certification means that we:
- apply a systematic RI methodology in selecting stocks;
- disclose our funds performance and stock holdings;
- have undergone independent verification to ensure that our systems, processes and procedures reflect the RI methodology outlined in our Fund's Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).
