Fund Objective: The Fund's investment objective is to achieve capital growth and, consistent with a gradually changing asset allocation, income returns for investors planning to retire in or within approximately five years after 2040. The Fund's asset allocation will become more conservative as 2040 is approached and passed, moving from higher risk (equity) to mainly lower risk (fixed income) investments.

ESG

What is ESG?

ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance and is an approach for evaluating to what extent a company works towards social goals. For investors this can be used in order to understand how their funds and the assets they are made up of work towards these goals and use that information to help make sustainable investment choices.
