BMO Global Asset Management has launched a global equity fund, focusing on the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The new fund, seeded by UBS Global Wealth Management, is designed to deliver long-term capital growth while also improving the environment.
The fund will be managed by Jamie Jenkins and BMO’s London-based global equities team, who also run the firm’s flagship Responsible Global Equity Strategy.
The BMO SDG Engagement Global Equity Fund will hold between 40 to 60 carefully selected global small- and mid-cap equities, all of which meet strict criteria around quality and value.
The fund, available to both retail and institutional investors, has a Sicav structure and is registered for sale in Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
