The value of your investment may become worth more or less than at the time of original investment. While any third-party data used is considered reliable, its accuracy is not guaranteed.

We continue to evolve our approach to impact investing in response to major trends, with particular focus on health care, the intensifying impact of climate change, and the accelerating shift to digital ways of working and living. In our sixth annual impact report, we discuss key developments at both platform level and across our 11 themes. For each theme, we share sample investment spotlights of companies and issuers we invested in on your behalf, illustrating our impact investment process and the measurable outcomes achieved.
To help you make the most of the report, we have created an interactive experience that allows you to move easily between sections and select the topics that are of most interest.
