GIVES [[{“value”:”
In 2024 our Global Value Impact Equity Strategy (GIVES) had a strong year, proving that our value approach to sustainable investing can deliver strong financial returns even as the impact index suffers. We generated a +5.7% net return, significantly outperforming our style benchmark of the MSCI Sustainable Impact Index, which returned -9.4%. As in 2023, concerns about the speed of adoption for major sustainability trends like EVs and renewables dragged down the valuations of many of the more obvious impact stocks. At the same time, our cheaply valued impact stocks managed to post reasonable financial returns, while also delivering positive change including almost four million tonnes of portfolio-weighted emissions avoided.”}]]
