Mirova says the Mirova Global Sustainable Equity Fund has surpassed $1 billion in assets under management.

The Mirova Global Sustainable Equity Fund was launched in 2016 and is an all-cap global equity portfolio with exposure to 50 global stocks with a positive impact on the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and seeks to be aligned with a <2°C global warming scenario, in line with the Paris Agreement. The fund is co-managed by Hua Cheng, Amber Fairbanks and Jens Peers of Mirova US, an affiliate of Natixis Investment Managers.

“The growth of the Mirova Global Sustainable Equity Fund in its first five years is a testament to investors’ increasing appreciation of the role ESG strategies can play in portfolios,” said David Giunta, CEO for the US at Natixis Investment Managers. “We congratulate Mirova on this achievement of $1 billion assets under management as yet another impressive milestone in their long history as an ESG investing specialist.”
