We believe that environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) factors may have a material impact on investment risk and return outcomes and that good stewardship can create and preserve value for companies and markets as a whole. The trustee also recognises that long term sustainability issues, particularly climate change, present risks and opportunities that increasingly may require explicit consideration.
The New Ireland Assurance Responsible Investment Policy and Engagement Policy sets out how we incorporate ESG considerations and sustainability risks into our investments and how we engage and interact with the management of the companies in which we invest. The scope and application of the policies and the responsibilities and obligations arising under the policies are also set out.
Our Sustainable Investing webpage sets out our commitment to sustainable finance and includes all relevant polices and documentation.
New Ireland’s PRIME range of funds, available under the New Ireland Master Trust Preferred Suite of funds incorporates Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) goals into its investment process.
PRIME funds are categorised as Article 8 under the Sustainable Financial Disclosure Regulations (SFDR) meaning they promote, among other characteristics, environmental or social characteristics, or a combination of those characteristics, provided that the companies in which the investments are made follow good governance practices. They use exclusions, tilting and asset stewardship to promote Environmental and Social objectives as well as promote good governance.
The PRIME 3 fund is also a significant element of the default Passive IRIS (ARF Option) fund.
See the New Ireland Master Trust brochure for more information.
