Environment, the theme of tomorrow

Invest in the themes of tomorrow

"We only invest in companies that benefit from the effects of the four investment themes mentioned below, and remain committed to our leitmotif: themes rooted in reality".

Alex Araujo, Fund Manager

Why thematic investing?

Four major themes currently dominate the changing world we live in: demographic change, the need to address environmental challenges, the expansion and renewal of infrastructure and technological innovations. Every day, every individual is affected. Our goal is to exploit the long-term opportunities arising from these thematic trends in a disciplined manner. 

The fund focuses on four main themes: demographics, environment, infrastructure and innovation. Each of these four themes is divided into two sub-themes.

Please note that the value of the fund's assets may fluctuate, causing the net asset value of the fund to fall or rise. You may not get back the amount originally invested

The environment

In the course of climate change, people's environmental awareness is increasing rapidly. In order to achieve the specified climate targets, CO₂ emissions must be drastically reduced worldwide over the next few decades. The path towards renewable energies plays a decisive role here. But also the supply of clean water, the sustainable handling of waste and the efficient use of resources by way of recycling are in focus here.

Where do we invest?
