Investment objective

This equity fund aims to generate long-term capital growth and to promote environmental and social characteristics, while respecting risk diversification.


Key features

The fund invests in a concentrated portfolio mainly including stocks of smaller, innovative Swiss companies which are among the leaders in their industry, offer interesting profitability growth potential, and whose stock prices have attractive upside potential versus the estimated enterprise values at the time of the investment. The fund seeks to promote environmental and social characteristics.


Approach

The investment team takes long-term high-conviction decisions based on in-depth research. In pursuit of the fund's goal to promote environmental and social characteristics, the team excludes controversial sectors, applies specific ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) criteria to avoid the worst laggards, tracks doubtful activities, and ensures voting as well as engagement with the companies via a third party. The team manages the fund actively to seize opportunities and control risks.
