With investing, your capital is at risk
Our investment philosophy
We believe that investing for climate impact is the only way forward to create a sustainable future. With a focus on climate solutions, we have identified six core themes (Clim8 themes) which can help us reach the UN Sustainable Development Goals together and generate real impact, every day.
The Clim8 themes that work for a sustainable future
Green energy
Clean mobility
Climate technology
Water systems
Sustainable food
Circular economy
No excuses, real impact only
Aligned with our core principles, we have a very strict exclusion policy that ensures any portfolio you hold with us is free from polluting industries and companies that do not fit within our environmental impact mission.
- Fossil fuels
- Tobacco, gambling and weapons
- Big tech companies
Portfolios filled with climate solutions
Instead, every portfolio you hold with Clim8 is made up of a curated selection of funds engaged in positive planet changing activities. Investing in them is investing for a sustainable future, for you and the planet.
Our guiding principles
Environmental screening
Utilising quantitative data from independent climate data providers, potential funds and ETFs are screened for their carbon impact amongst other things, to ensure only the right companies make it into your portfolio.
Thematic screening
Filtering funds and ETFs with the Clim8 themes in mind, ensures only those whose revenue sources lie within the sectors that are covered by our themes are included in Clim8’s portfolios.
Financial screening
With an internal scoring system that includes financial information such as profitability and growth as well as risk metrics, the selection process is always guided by a consideration for the financial health and potential for returns.
