Fund Objective: The aim of the Fund is to provide capital growth and income, net of fees, over the longer term (rolling 5 year periods) and to support the development of sustainable societies by pursuing five environmental and social themes across the areas of: • Clean energy: by investing in companies whose products, solutions or services reduce the use of hydrocarbon-based fossil fuels; • Food: by investing in companies whose products, solutions or services address the imbalance in the supply of and demand for high quality nutrition; • Health & well-being: by investing in companies whose products, solutions or services improve ineffective healthcare, protection and support systems; • Resource efficiency: by investing in companies whose solutions, products or services reduce the depletion and inefficient use of the earth’s scarce resources; and • Water: by investing in companies whose products, solutions or services improve the imbalance in the supply of and demand for water and water systems. The Investment Manager monitors the proportion of revenue generating activity within each company which is aligned with one or more of the UN Sustainable Development Goals ("SDGs"). At least 50% of the revenue generating activity of each company must be aligned with one or more of the SDGs in order for a company to be considered to have material sustainability characteristics. The Fund may also allocate capital to countries that are themselves making significant progress towards meeting the SDGs by investing in sovereign debt instruments of countries that have achieved SDG index scores of 75 or higher in the most recent UN Sustainable Development Report.Each of these assets must also be in line with the “Sustainable Investment Strategy” below. The Fund aims to ensure that at least 70% of the Scheme Property is invested in such assets.Sustainability Criteria. The Fund invests a minimum of 70% by value in assets which are judged to have material sustainability characteristics using the measure referenced in the “Investment Objective” section above. For the purposes of portfolio construction and diversification, some (but not exceeding 30%) of the Scheme Property may be invested in assets that do not have material sustainability characteristics, but are not excluded. This would include: • cash (which is not classified as sustainable);• equities, corporate bonds, alternative investments – when the issuing company is assessed as having some level of revenue alignment with the SDGs, but less than the 50% threshold required for the asset to have material sustainability characteristics as referenced above; and / or• sovereign debt – when the instrument issuer does not have an SDG index score of 75 or higher, as per the most recent UN Report.Companies will always be excluded where they fall under the exclusions set out below. Such assets will not be held by the Fund.Investment Parameters. Within the parameters above, the Fund will aim to achieve the investment objective by investing in a global portfolio which is comprised of: • Equity securities (60% to 75%) • Corporate bonds and government bonds (5% to 25%)• Alternative investments (up to 25%) – alternative investments are defined as assets that have historically (over 5 years or more) had a low correlation to equity markets, for example, investment trusts focusing on social or green infrastructure• Permitted closed-ended funds, including investment trusts and real estate investment trusts (up to 20%) • Warrants (up to 5%)• Cash or near cash (up to 10%)Sovereign debt will not be expected to exceed 15% of the portfolio. There may be times when the Fund may invest outside these parameters. For example, during times of market stress (including a market crash/unforeseen event or circumstance).The Fund may achieve indirect exposure to the above asset classes by holding units in other collective investment schemes (including those managed or operated by the ACD and/or advised or managed by the Investment Manager, or an associate of the ACD or Investment Manager), but these will be limited to a maximum of 10% of the total value of the Fund’s portfolio.The use of derivatives and/or hedging transactions is permitted in connection with the efficient portfolio management of the Fund. However, the use of derivatives in this manner is expected to be limited. On giving 60 days' notice to Shareholders, the Fund may, in addition to its other investment powers, use derivatives and forward transactions for investment purposes. It is not intended that the use of derivatives in this way will change the risk profile of the Fund.Borrowing will be permitted on a temporary basis in accordance with the Regulations.The Investment Manager actively manages the Fund. This means the Investment Manager actively makes decisions about how to invest the scheme property (and which investments to buy and sell) instead of simply following a market index.Exclusions.The Investment Manager applies restrictions which preclude investment in certain companies, even if they would otherwise be judged to have material sustainability characteristics using the measure referenced in the “Investment Objective” section above. The Investment Manager utilises independent assessments from a specialist research provider to ensure the negative criteria are applied fairly and consistently. The Fund’s exclusions are as follows: • Adult Content – Companies involved in the production or distribution of pornographic material. • Alcohol – Companies which derive 50% or more of their revenue from the manufacture or sale of alcoholic drinks. • Environment – Companies will be excluded where their activities have a significant negative environmental impact. Application of this exclusion considers both an assessment of each company’s negative environmental impact and any measures deployed to minimise the impacts and risks. • Factory Farming – Companies involved in the rearing of animals in intensive conditions. • Fossil Fuels – Companies involved in the exploration, extraction or production of fossil fuels, including natural gas, oil and coal. • Gambling – Companies which derive 50% or more of their revenue from the operation of gambling facilities. • High Interest Lending – Companies who provide high-interest consumer credit facilities. • Human Rights – Companies where there is credible evidence that operations, knowingly or unintentionally, cause or contribute to the abuse of human rights, or with operations in countries regarded as having oppressive regimes where evidence is held of their involvement, either by collusion or complacency, in abuses of human rights.• Armaments - Companies that manufacture or sell weapons or weapon systems, or provide strategic components or services specifically for military use. • Nuclear – Companies that are involved in the generation of nuclear power or provide nuclear services to the military. • Tobacco – Companies which derive 50% or more of their revenue from the production or
