Sustainable investing

At LGT Wealth Management, we aim to invest in a way that supports a more sustainable future, without compromising on financial returns. We believe that incorporating sustainability into our investment decisions, it not only helps to mitigate long term risks, but also promotes opportunities for long term investors. As stewards of capital, we have an  important role to play in the allocation of capital towards companies and assets that operate in a more sustainable way. Consideration of environmental, social and governance factors ensures best practice risk management.

What, why and how

What is sustainable investing?

Sustainable investing is about investing in companies with sustainable business practices, with the aim of maximising risk-adjusted investment returns over the medium to long term. We believe the long-term health and stability of the market relies on companies operating in a sustainable manner, and that companies and assets won’t thrive while ignoring internal or external environmental, social or governance issues.

Why invest with us?

We have made sustainable investing a top priority for our business. We see it not only as the right thing to do, but part of our responsibility to our clients to provide these opportunities and an essential part of delivering risk-adjusted returns.

How do I get started?

Let us help you build resilience into your portfolio and make the most of sustainable investment opportunities. There’s no one best approach when it comes to investing sustainably, so let us guide you through the approach that makes sense for you.

A significant opportunity set

Opportunities within sustainable investing have increased significantly in recent years and are available across a broad range of themes. However, the opportunity set in the transition to a lower-carbon economy is particularly profound – estimated to be around $100 trillion according Brookfield Asset Management.

Sustainable investment themes can be accessed across a variety of asset classes, both domestically and internationally, via fund structures or individual securities.
