Sustainable Investments

Investments influence our environment and economy. Selecting issuers with high ESG qualities reduces the negative impact and the risk

  • f investments.

Selecting corporations and countries with high positive SDG impact increases the portfolios‘ SDG impact. We expect - beginning 2019 - the regulatory requirement to report ESG qualities and CO2-emissions Constructing sustainable portfolios requires special research, compliance to standards and dedicated investment processes Certifications for sustainability such as UN PRI reporting and FNG-Siegel are gaining importance

Quantitative Credit Rating Models including ESG factors

Source: MSCI ESG Research: “The Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Strategy Score (ranging from 0 to 10) is calculated based on the combination of the three mitigation data points: 1) Use of cleaner sources of energy: This data point indicates our assessment of how aggressively the company has sought to mitigate its carbon emissions through the use of cleaner sources of energy such as solar, wind, geothermal, co-generation, or natural gas in place of oil or coal. 2) Energy consumption management and operational efficiency enhancements. This data point indicates our assessment

  • f how aggressively the company has sought to mitigate its carbon emissions by managing energy consumption and

improving the energy efficiency of its operations. 3) CDP disclosure: This data point indicates whether the company reports its carbon emissions to the CDP. Possible values: 'Yes' or 'No’. “

The exclusions of our funds are extensive and strict:

We control our exclusions with ESG Screen 17 (www.screen17.com) Corporates are excluded when they operate in the areas: Weapon production Nuclear energy Coal or fracking Oil sands Companies are excluded when they generate more than five percent of sales in the areas: alcohol, gaming, pornography, oil, tobacco, gene technology or animal testing Countries are excluded when they are involved in Severe controversies, death penalty, conflicting human rights, corruption (source: Transparency International), or conflicting with non-proliferation treaty, authoritarian regime (source: Freedom House Ranking)

slide-22
SLIDE 22

22

Exclusions: Considering unwanted consequences

Example 1: Reduce carbon-emissions – Investments in utilities are not allowed Question: Do you use heating in a cold winter? Possible solution: Only invest in utilities with highest energy efficiency and best filter technology Example 2: No tobacco Question: What about supermarkets? Possible solution: No investment, if the company generates more than five percent of sales with tobacco

Scenario Analysis can help organizations..

  • consider climate change issues with following characteristics

possible outcomes that are highly uncertain

  • utcomes that will play out over the medium to longer term

potential disruptive effects that, due to uncertainty and complexity, are substantial

  • frame and assess the potential range of plausible business, strategic and financial impacts from

climate change and the associated management actions

  • identify indicators to monitor the external environment and better recognize when the

environment is moving toward a different scenario state

In conducting Scenario Analysis, organizations should strive to achieve:

  • transparency around parameters, assumptions, analytical approaches and time frames
  • comparability of results across different scenarios and analytical approaches
  • adequate documentation for the methodology, assumptions, data sources and analytics
  • consistency of methodology year over year
  • sound governance scenario analysis conduct, validation, approval and application
  • effective disclosure of scenario analysis that will inform and promote a constructive dialogue

between investors and organizations on the range of potential impacts and resilience of the

  • rganization’s strategy under various plausible climate-related scenarios

Risk Management

Actively using suitable instruments for risk management:

  • Reduction of equity exposure with put options for relevant equity indices like

DAX or EuroStoxx and careful selection of portfolio weightings, strikes and maturities to remain cost efficient and to introduce a positive convexity to the portfolios

  • In volatile market conditions we use tactical positions for the short term and

anticyclical positions for the longer term.

  • Managing the interest duration using various instruments to avoid the „Bund

Future Squeeze Risk“

  • Hedging FX exposures

Break MSCI SDG values down to the 17 SDGs Explanation Impact Measurement Method

For the SDG impact measurement of our funds, we have constructed our own measurement model based on the MSCI ESG Research Tool. Since MSCI ESG Inc. relates the impact measurement to 11 subject areas, the challenge was to meaningfully assign these 11 topics to the 17 SDG’s. This enables an impact measurement on the respective goals. The figures in the tables above reflect the estimated annual sales that companies achieve with products and services that offer sustainable impact solutions based on a $ 1 million investment in the portfolio or a hypothetical $ 1 million investment used to replicate the benchmark.
