Pictet Group
In line with our responsible investment approach
Our ESG portfolios are managed in accordance with the principles of sustainable development
Responsible investing covers a broad investment landscape: from environmental, social and governance (ESG) integration – where ESG factors are included in traditional financial analysis – to Impact Investing, where meeting a goal with social benefits is prioritized ahead of financial returns.
The LPP/BVG-10 ESG, LPP/BVG-25 ESG, LPP/BVG-40 ESG and LPP/BVG-60 ESG portfolios are managed in accordance with the principles of sustainable development. Most of the assets will be invested in securities whose issuers are deemed to comply with environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria.
The objective of integrating these principles into the investment process is to:
- generate superior long-term risk-adjusted performance;
- influence the actions of management teams through dialogue and/or the exercise of voting rights;
- induce positive social and environmental effects.
