GuardCap Funds attain highest Morningstar Sustainability Rating™
A key aspect of GuardCap’s investment approach is that we invest in high-quality companies capable of generating long-term sustainable growth. We integrate analysis of environmental, social and governance (ESG) aspects into our investment process, and companies that face barriers to sustainable growth resulting from poor ESG practices do not make it into our portfolios.
We are therefore delighted to announce that both the GuardCap Global Equity Fund and the GuardCap Emerging Markets Equity Fund are the recipients of the highest Morningstar Sustainability Rating™. Additionally, both funds received the Morningstar Low Carbon Designation™.
The GuardCap Global Equity Fund has a Carbon Risk Score of 3.04 out of 100, and the GuardCap Emerging Markets Equity Fund has a Carbon Risk Score of 7.89 out of 1001. Both funds have a Fossil Fuel Involvement score of 0%.
