What is Indosuez Objectif Terre's areas of investment?

This is a fund invested in the shares of companies seeking to respond to environmental issues through two main thrusts: the fight against global warming and the preservation of natural resources. These thrusts are then divided into six sub-categories* aimed at identifying companies offering relevant innovations. For example, we invest in alternative transport companies (electric vehicles, railways, etc.) or in waste management (recovery of household waste, metal recycling, etc.). As these environmental issues are global (CO2 and pollution know no borders), Indosuez Objectif Terre is an international fund investing in solutions developed all over the world.

 

Why launch Indosuez Objectif Terre?

Globally, ecological awareness is growing, both on an individual and political level. As the annual Conferences of the Parties ("COP") are being covered in the media, the States commit themselves and the regulations tend to be harmonised. In mid-December, the new President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, announced a "European Green Deal", aimed at slowing down global warming, which should make it possible to mobilise one thousand billion euros of investment over the 2020-2030 decade. At the same time, companies are implementing investment programmes that promote technological innovation, while reducing the financing of traditional fossil energy. The challenge of our decade is to succeed in redirecting the massive financing of carbon energies towards all decarbonated solutions and the protection of the environment. The Indosuez Objectif Terre Fund proposes to contribute to this by reconciling the search for yield and the search for meaning.

 

What is the fund's management objective?

The management objective of Indosuez Objectif Terre is to outperform the international equity markets (represented by the MSCI World benchmark index, with net dividends reinvested), over a recommended investment period of 5 years. In order to offer a balanced portfolio, we choose stocks from companies in different geographical areas and sectors in line with our themes.

 

How are these stocks selected?

From the outset, companies with a significant share of their activity in fossil energies or subject to environmental controversies are excluded. We then develop an investment universe composed of companies with a positive impact on the environment. Finally, we select companies offering growth and return opportunities, using conventional financial analysis. We are convinced that our themes offer financial opportunities while helping to respond to a climate and environmental emergency.
