A Global, High-Conviction ESG Fund Crosses Five Years


A European, multinational, multiboutique asset manager's team is celebrating a big milestone for an active, high-conviction, global equity, ESG mutual fund for investors in the U.S.

On March 31, the Mirova Global Sustainable Equity Fund (ESGYX) gained its five-year track record, Jens Peers, U.S. CEO and chief investment officer for Mirova, confirmed last week Peers, Hua Cheng, and Amber Fairbanks co-PM the $969.9-million-AUM mutual fund. (Paris-based Mirova is one of Natixis Investment Managers' affiliates.)

The three- and five-year marks are key thresholds when funds often become more (or even at all) visible in many intermediaries' screening processes.

"This milestone shows that investments designed to capitalize on ESG factors and trends can be a strong part of investor portfolios," states David Giunta, Natixis IM's U.S. CEO. He adds, "Mirova has been a leader in ESG investing for decades."

As of December 31, Mirova had $23.9 billion in AUM, including $4.96 billion in its U.S. arm. Natixis IM and its 20-plus boutiques had $1.3897 billion in AUM worldwide.
