on the environment, on emissions, on water, on waste, what's its impact on its people and its customers, and how does it manage the organization?

So we're considering those risks alongside the investment process.

we also have what we call sustainability or impact investing and this is a type of investing that's really trying to target companies that are having a positive social or environmental impact on on the world and so they're typically you know driving better sustainability outcomes around the world and again this can be they're helping to decarbonize the economy they're providing educational outcomes they may be improving patient

patients in a healthcare setting.

So that's more the sustainability and impact side.

So as you can see, it is kind of broad.

And I think what's really important is to understand what strategy the funds that you're looking to invest is employing or what strategy you would like to align your investments with.

Yeah, I think so.

What we typically say with impact investing

is it's all about actually really generating positive social or environmental outcomes and it's all about the measurement of those outcomes over time so typically in the impact space which is kind of considered the most green if you will that's all about you know generating returns but it may not be targeting above benchmark returns or superior returns it's all about you know it could be social housing for example um developing hospitals it's really on the impact side of things and

And then just one step down from that is kind of what you touch on is the Matic ESG investing.

So that's targeting one specific aspect of the sustainability spectrum and really investing along with those themes.

So common ones here are in the environmental space.

So they might be investing in renewable energy or low carbon technology.

And it really has that purpose, that single purpose on one element of sustainability.

But of course, you can have

And it's not a specific box because you can have a strategy that ties in elements of all of these types of ESG investing similar to our fund where we do have those negative screens that I spoke about on the ethical side.

But we also like to invest in sustainable themes in industries that we think are going to benefit from this big societal shift towards more sustainable outcomes of the world.

Again, it's a little bit complicated, but it doesn't have to be scary.

What the main thing is to go in and understand their process and how they think about sustainability.
