Gold funds are those where the majority of the fund (over 70%) invested in companies making a positive contribution to the SDGs (through product and /or services). Full integration of ESG risks and opportunities into the investment process (best in class) as well as systematic sustainability reporting. No major detrimental impacts.
Silver funds are those where the majority of the fund (over 50%) is invested in companies making a positive contribution to the SDGs. We would expect to see evidence of sustainability reporting and funds will integrate ESG risk and opportunities as a minimum. In addition, if a fund has a score relative to its benchmark (what it measures its performance against) of 20% or higher it could qualify for a silver if other aspects of the process score highly.
Bronze funds are those funds with a stated intention to invest in companies making a positive contribution to achievement of the SDGs, either through better than average integration of ESG risks and opportunities, or direct stock selection.
