The EU’s Regulation on the Establishment of a Framework to Facilitate Sustainable Investment (Regulation EU/2020/852) (the “Taxonomy Regulation”) establishes a framework to facilitate sustainable investment and sets out harmonised criteria for determining whether an economic activity qualifies as environmentally sustainable. An investment would be considered as environmentally sustainable where its economic activity (i) contributes significantly to one or more of the environmental objectives included in the Taxonomy Regulation (which includes (a) climate change mitigation, (b) climate change adaptation, (c) the sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources, (d) the transition to a circular economy, (e) pollution prevention and control and (f) the protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems), (ii) does not significantly harm any of the environmental objectives included in the Taxonomy Regulation, (iii) is carried out in compliance with minimum safeguards (as prescribed in the Taxonomy Regulation) and (iv) complies with technical screening criteria established by the European Commission. The Taxonomy Regulation requires the Company to provide transparency on how the ESG Orientated Funds and the Sustainable Investment Fund contribute to environmentally sustainable economic activities.
The Taxonomy Regulation disclosures for the ESG Orientated Funds and the Sustainable Investment Fund can be found in their respective pre-contractual annexes attached to their Supplements. The investments included in the Mainstream Funds do not take into account the EU criteria for environmentally sustainable economic activities.
The Company’s Annual Report and Audited Financial Statements (found on this webpage) includes a description of the extent to which environmental or social characteristics were met in the ESG Orientated Funds and the overall sustainability-related impact of the Sustainable Investment Fund for the time period covered in such report.
Should any changes be made to this disclosure in the future, a clear explanation of such changes will be published here.
