Lonsec Sustainable Managed Portfolios

The Sustainable Managed Portfolios provide investors with capital growth and income through exposure to strategies that demonstrate strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices and where possible, can make a positive impact on the world by contributing to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals agenda.

Investment universe

The Sustainable portfolios invest across a diversified range of Australian equities, global equities, property and infrastructure, fixed interest assets and alternative assets.

The portfolio can access such exposures through managed funds and Australian listed securities such as exchange traded funds (ETFs), Exchange Traded Products (ETPs), managed portfolios and cash.

The portfolios will apply filters based upon Lonsec’s qualitative ratings, ESG BioMetrics and our Sustainability Research.

Our investment philosophy

Lonsec combines a dynamic approach to asset allocation with active investment selection. To be eligible for portfolio inclusion, fund managers must meet Lonsec’s minimum quality criteria, which includes funds rated Recommended or higher by Lonsec’s investment research team.

Sustainable Exclusions

Lonsec’s approach to responsible investing leads us to actively seek out strategies that contribute positively to at least one of the broad environmental, societal or economic objectives of the SDGs. While seeking to ‘do good’ is a key pillar of our approach, we will also seek to ‘avoid unnecessary harm’ to the planet and society by excluding or limiting exposure to a range of business activities considered fundamentally misaligned to the objectives of the UN SDGs.
