We believe that investing responsibly offers great potential for investors. There are risks however, and it’s therefore important to find an experienced manager to manage these.
Responsible investing strategies could invest in emerging markets, where investments can be higher risk and more volatile, or have investments denominated in a foreign currency meaning a change in exchange rates could affect their value.
Sustainability risks can also apply to some strategies. These are risks which arise from any environmental, social or governance events or conditions that, were they to occur, could cause a material negative impact on the value of the investment. Specific sustainability risks include but are not limited to climate transition risk, physical climate risk, environmental risk, social risk, governance risk.
Investments in fixed income may be subject to the default/credit risk of issuers, interest rate risk as bond prices move inversely to changes in interest rates, and liquidity risk. Investing in higher-yielding or non-investment grade bonds might mean the risk of the issuer defaulting on the capital repayment is higher.
Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value and income of an investment can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the amount originally invested.
