Sustainable, Responsible &/or ESG Policy:

Objectives

The fund aims to provide capital growth by investing in equity and equity related securities of companies worldwide which help the transition towards the sustainable provision of food and water and which meet the investment manager's sustainability criteria.

 

Investment Policy

The fund is actively managed and invests at least 80% of its assets in concentrated range of equity and equity related securities of companies worldwide involved in the provision of sustainable food and water activities.

Such companies will either (a) generate at least 50% of their revenue from food and water activities (including in the areas of water management, agricultural equipment, agricultural inputs, food production, processing, packaging and distribution, food and water retail and recycling); or (b) play critical roles in the transition towards the sustainable provision of food and water, and be increasing their exposure to such activities, provided that no more than 5% of the fund's assets invested in companies falling under (b) may contribute to the minimum 80%.

At least 80% of the fund's assets will meet the investment manager's sustainability criteria (please see the fund characteristics section for more details).

The fund typically holds 35 to 60 companies.

The fund does not directly invest in certain activities, industries or groups of issuers above the limits listed under “Sustainability Information” on the fund's webpage, accessed via www.schroders.com/en/uk/private-investor/gfc.

The investment manager may also engage with companies held by the fund to challenge identified areas of weakness on sustainability issues. More details on the investment manager's approach to sustainability and its engagement with companies are available on the website

https://www.schroders.com/en/uk/private-investor/strategic-capabilities/sustainability/.

The fund may also invest directly or indirectly in other securities (including other asset classes), countries, regions, industries or currencies, collective investment schemes (including Schroder funds), warrants and money market instruments, and hold cash.
