Sustainable investing

It is our belief that investing for your future goes hand in hand with investing for a sustainable and responsible world. It is the view of St. James's Place, a leading UK Wealth Management company, that engagement is a key way to encourage the transition to a sustainable world.

By investing into businesses and engaging with their management boards as a key shareholder, the St. James' s Place fund managers can use their voice to bring about change. All of St. James's Place funds are signatories of the United Nations Principles of Responsible Investment, and collective action from shareholders can be a powerful lever to encourage companies to operate more sustainably.

Engagement can create long-term value for shareholders, encouraging firms to adopt practices contributing to a more sustainable global economy. Not only is this a responsible way to invest in order to generate change for the good, it has the potential to put investors in a strong position to benefit themselves, given the fact that the companies they have invested in over the long term are likely to be better positioned for a sustainable world moving into the future.

For those who have specific requirements regarding sustainable & responsible investing, we offer a bespoke investment approach to this area of wealth planning.

The value of an investment with St. James's Place will be directly linked to the performance of the funds you select and the value can therefore go down as well as up. You may get back less than you invested.
