Money market 

Our Money Market Euro Sustainable fund is mainly intended for clients wishing to benefit from the stability and liquidity of the money market while taking into account environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria through a low risk portfolio. The fund invests in short-term instruments issued by governments and corporations that manage well their sustainability-related challenges.

In order to optimally assess the sustainability of the different money market instrument issuers, our team of 11 sustainable development specialists first of all executes our rigorous in-house sustainability analysis differentiated by type of issuers.

 

Corporate issuers have to respect the 10 principles of the United Nations Global Compact (which comprises four main areas of human rights, labour rights, the environment and anti-corruption), and may not be involved in controversial activities such as adult content, gambling or weapons.

Governmental bodies are selected via a Best-in-Class analysis based on a ‘capital approach’:
only countries that manage their human, natural and social capitals in the most sustainable ways can be shortlisted. Moreover, countries must comply with democratic principles and major international treaties, such as the conventions of the International Labour Organisation.
