Global Asset Management has launched two new funds,
the HSBC Global Investment Funds – Global Lower Carbon Equity
fund and HSBC Global Investment Funds – Global Lower Carbon Bond
fund.
With effect from 30 April, the funds are offered to Hong
Kong retail investors who seek to look to invest in firms against
global climate change.
The HSBC GIF – Global Lower Carbon Equity Fund invests in
developed markets equities. To lower the exposure to carbon
intensive businesses, every portfolio holding will have its
carbon footprint assessed pre-purchase and on an ongoing basis so
that the total carbon footprint of the portfolio can be managed
and reduced.
The HSBC GIF – Global Lower Carbon Bond Fund invests in
investment grade corporate bonds denominated in US Dollar, Euro
and Pound Sterling, with exposure to certified green bonds and
high yield bonds. The fund adopts a dynamic bottom-up and
top-down investment approach using composite carbon intensity
data to understand the impact of individual issuers and sectors
on total greenhouse gas emissions within the portfolio.
