SEB to expand sustainability policy to entire fund range

SEB Investment Management (IM) will now apply its investment exclusion policy beyond its sustainable and ethical funds, to its entire fund range.

The new policy will be brought in during Q1 2021. “This means that we will introduce the same processes and high ambition levels for integration, exclusion and active ownership in all our funds. As a result, the differentiation between ‘sustainable’ and other funds will no longer be relevant and as a consequence, several of our fund names will change during 2021,” SEB IM added.

In addition, SEB IM aims for its investment portfolio to be carbon neutral by 2040, as well as ramping up its investments in companies contributing to the transition to a low carbon economy.
