We all want to create a brighter future for the next generation. At M&G it is our mission to support our customers’ investment goals by aiming to generate sustainable returns over the long term. We also recognise that many of our customers are looking for their investments to offer more than just the potential for financial returns – the opportunity to make a difference to the planet too.
We’re all trying to do our bit to make the world a better place. 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 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. Past performance is not a guide to future performance.
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 range of over 45 funds, each with their own individual aims and objectives, a number of our 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.
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
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
While we support the UN SDGs, we are not associated with the UN and our funds are not endorsed by them.
