Johannes Lins, Portfolio Manager Equities, explains this approach, which puts SDG and return factors in an optimal relationship in the portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The UN SDGs provide a transparent framework for structuring investments in terms of their positive contribution to society. Investors who shift their portfolios to an SDG-based approach are helping to shape the <\/strong>future of sustainable investing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Quoniam, our goal is to offer a transparent and understandable SDG investment approach for global equities. In doing so, we aim to go beyond simple exclusion lists. Our strategy combines databased SDG assessments with diversified multi-factor forecasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our long-term-oriented investors benefit from a transparent, sustainable equity portfolio with active return potential.

The Quoniam Approach
<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The investment concept focuses on the integration of the SDGs. Controversial business practices as well as companies that seriously obstruct one of the SDGs are not considered in the investment universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using information on products, patents, business processes, environmental costs, management and controversies, we increase the SDG impact of the portfolio as part of bottom-up stock selection.
Our SDG and alpha forecasts are considered at the same time, set in relation to each other and mapped in the portfolio using our well-established optimisation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of our cooperation with other firms within the Union Investment Group, we exchange views with companies on specific SDG issues.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
