CPC Impact Investing has a heightened focus on environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors alongside traditional financial analysis in the investment decision process.
Through Impact Investing, you are allocating capital towards corporations that are addressing some of the greatest challenges we face. Your investments are also a force for good as they are engaging with companies to prioritize sustainability. In doing so, your expected return can be competitive investment results and - more importantly - a better world for generations to come.
Incorporating sustainable investing criteria into the investment selection process may result in investment performance deviating from other investment strategies or broad market benchmarks.
