Russell Investments' Low Carbon Global Shares Fund - cutting-edge decarbonisation investment strategy

Russell Investments has launched a performance-focused low carbon global shares fund, responding to client demand for sustainable investment solutions that support the management of climate-change risk and the transition to a low carbon economy.

Designed with the firm's proprietary 'decarbonisation' investment strategy, the Russell Investments' Low Carbon Global Shares Fund comprehensively considers the value and measure of carbon, green energy, and environmental, social and governance (ESG) characteristics. It does all of this while also avoiding the asset, sector and industry biases that can occur with a pure divestment approach.

The Fund goes beyond carbon reduction alone, aiming to provide an increased exposure to renewable energy, an improved aggregate ESG profile and a targeted reduction in coal exposure.
