The value of a fund's assets will go down as well as up. This will cause the value of your investment to fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you originally invested.
As well as the potential for growth, more and more people want their money to be invested in a way that benefits communities, helps solve environmental issues and contributes to a cleaner, better world, all while targeting long-term returns for the future.
As governments around the world come together and sign up to long-term targets to help fix the planet, it makes sense that clean energy solutions, carbon capture technology and waste disposal innovation could be the growth sectors of the future, helping to make these targets a reality. You’re in the driving seat, so why not get your ISAs working for something more than just financial returns this year?
Watch our video to find out how your investments could help you play your part in working to solve some of the challenges you care about.

The value and income from any fund's assets will go down as well as up. This will cause the value of your investment to fall as well as rise. There is no guarantee that any fund will achieve its objective and you may get back less than you originally invested.
At M&G, we believe it’s the longer-term financial decisions, as well as the day-to-day choices we make, that have the potential to create a brighter future for us all. And while we offer a wide range of funds, each with their own individual aims and objectives, our Planet+ funds can help meet this need, and aim to achieve something better for the environment and society, one investment at a time.

Introducing the M&G Planet+ funds
Our range of Planet+ funds have been built with two clear aims in mind – to deliver long-term financial returns for our customers and to contribute towards a better future for society and the planet.
Within the range, there are both sustainable and impact funds to choose from, both aiming for long-term financial returns while achieving something better.
Here are some of the companies our Planet+ funds invest in. Find out how they’re positioned to make the most of a world moving towards a more sustainable economy as we speak.
Impact funds
Impact funds target a measurable, positive impact for people and the planet, alongside achieving long-term financial returns. To do this they will:
- aim to invest in companies that have the explicit intention of addressing the world’s major social and environmental issues
- look for companies that deliver a meaningful and measurable positive impact, often framed against the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
- report transparently on the impact that investments deliver
M&G Climate Solutions Fund
The M&G Climate Solutions Fund is an impact fund. It’s designed to deliver both financial returns for investors and a positive impact for the planet. We aim to do this by investing in companies that we believe can deliver solutions to the challenge of climate change.
M&G Positive Impact Fund
The M&G Positive Impact Fund is an impact fund. It’s designed to deliver both financial returns for investors and a positive impact for the planet. We aim to do this by investing in companies that we believe can deliver solutions to a range of societal and environmental issues the world is facing.
M&G Better Health Solutions Fund
Health and well-being are widely seen as one of the most crucial issues of the next decade. The M&G Better Health Solutions Fund, an impact fund, invests in companies with solutions that can both prevent and cure poor health, and promote well-being.
Sustainable funds
Sustainable funds look to make investments that contribute towards a more sustainable future for society and the planet. To do this they might:
- use sustainability considerations, such as the urgent need to combat climate change, or the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to frame what a fund invests in
- look to invest in the assets of companies, governments or organisations that have strong ESG (environmental, social and governance) credentials
- have targets to improve sustainability across the portfolio over time
M&G Sustainable Multi Asset Range
The M&G Sustainable Multi Asset Funds are sustainable funds. They are designed to deliver both financial returns for investors and invest in companies driven by sustainability themed considerations, like the ongoing fight against air pollution, while at the same time meeting high environmental, social and governance (ESG) standards.
M&G Global Listed Infrastructure Fund
The M&G Global Listed Infrastructure Fund invests beyond traditional infrastructure like utilities and transport, diversifying into companies in other areas, like communication and health infrastructure, targeting the best opportunities for our investors.
While we support the UN SDGs, we are not associated with the UN and our funds are not endorsed by them. Why not take a look at some of our Planet+ funds in more detail?
