ESG-funds
Funds that promote environmental or social factors and ensure good governance practices are called ESG funds. The funds promote ESG by investing, for example, in companies that focus on climate and employee conditions, diversity or anti-corruption. They can also work actively to influence companies to become more sustainable or to refrain from investing in companies that have a large and detrimental climate impact.
ESG funds comply with Article 8 of the EU regulation on sustainability‐related disclosures in the financial services sector.
