CT Responsible Global Equity Fund

Still pioneers after 25 years

Having adopted its global remit in 1998 the CT Responsible Global Equity Fund has transitioned through 25 years of change in the world of responsible investment.  The portfolio is built around our robust ‘Avoid, Improve, Invest’ philosophy and draws on a wealth of expertise in environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing together with the capabilities of our 40+ strong responsible investment team.

The fund targets long-term capital growth with stock selection focused within defined sustainability-orientated investment themes. Our active management ethos extends to stewardship activities and considered engagement to drive positive change in the world.  We aim to measure our impact along the way, improving how we rank against a range of sustainability metrics over time.
