EdenTree to add two SDR impact labels to fund range

We are pleased to confirm we will be adding the “Sustainability Impact” label to two funds in our range under the FCA’s Sustainability Disclosure Requirements (SDR) regime.
Following a client notification process, currently underway, the “Sustainability Impact” label will be applied to the EdenTree Green Future Fund, managed by EdenTree CIO and longstanding environmental investor Charlie Thomas and fund manager Tom Fitzgerald, and the EdenTree Green Infrastructure Fund, run by fund manager Tommy Kristoffersen.
The FCA’s four new SDR labels are intended to provide investors with the necessary information to make educated decisions as to which funds best align with their needs and sustainability inclinations. The Sustainability Impact label indicates to investors that a fund invests with an aim to achieve a predefined, positive and measurable environmental and/or social impact.
We are delighted to have met the high standard required to add these two new fund labels under SDR. We believe the new regime represents a positive step forward for the industry - one that will build trust in the sustainable investment market and help combat greenwashing.
As a firm with a broad range of differentiated responsible and sustainable solutions, we recognise the important role we have to play in improving transparency and investor understanding in this important area of the market, and we continue to work closely with the regulator to align our product range with the SDR regime.
The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations, you may not get back the amount you originally invested.
