What is it about?

Investors can select companies that create value in the long term through fundamental analysis. Investors build thus a concentrated portfolio of sustainable companies. The next step is engagement with these companies to stimulate them in their long term strategy. Investors can thus accelerate the transition to a sustainable economy.

Why is it important?

The transition to a sustainable economy is endogenous. The more companies are adopting sustainable business models, the quicker the transition.

Perspectives
