About the Fund

The Candriam Sustainable Global Equity Fund is a global core international equity fund benchmarked to the MSCI World Index (Net Dividends Reinvested) $A - unhedged. Candriam Investors Group sustainable management philosophy generates alpha from two distinct sources.

The first source of alpha is derived from a sustainable investment universe. Only those companies that rank best of sector with regard to their social, environmental, employment and ethical economic policies are considered.

The second source of alpha results from detailed quantitative analysis coupled with a risk controlled portfolio construction process. Sector, region and style biases in the portfolio are minimised to ensure stock specific factors drive portfolio performance rather than predetermined investment themes.

The Fund provides an exposure to an actively managed portfolio predominantly made up of listed best-of-sector global sustainable equities.

Candriam's investment rationale combines company level research with top down sectoral analysis to select stocks showing the best Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) characteristics with the aim of long term sustainable performance.

Some of its key features are:

• Core investment style

• Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific) and sector neutral exposures relative to benchmark

• Best in Class ESG/SRI sector approach and negative screens applied to reduce the MSCI World universe to an SRI Universe of stocks

• A quantitative multi-factor based model is applied to the SRI universe to construct a diversified portfolio of approximately 220 stocks

• Aims to provide investors with capital growth over the long term.
