SEB Global Sustainable Companies Fund
The SEB Global Sustainable Companies Fund is a global exposure equity fund with sustainable investments as its objective.
Equities
Past performance is not indicative of future results. The value of fund units/shares can rise as well as fall and you may not get back the amount invested.
Equity management is a long-standing and essential part of SEB's offer. Our equity management capabilities have a global reach and invest in most markets around the world.
We have a long tradition of equity management. We utilise two different management methods – fundamental and quantitative – for our equity funds.
A common denominator for both methods is that we actively integrate sustainability in all our investment processes and focus on creating value in the long term.
Fundamental equity management
Fundamental equity management, which applies mainly to our domestic markets, is characterised by in-depth fundamental analysis where, among other things, meetings with the management of companies are central to gain a deep understanding of the companies and their business models.
Quantitative equity management
For our quantitative managed funds, we employ sophisticated, modern methods to systematically analyse the equity markets by gathering and analysing large amounts of data from around the world.
Our equities teams
Our equity management capabilities have a global reach and invest in most markets around the world.
Our systematic investments team employs sophisticated, modern methods and flexible models to systematically compile and analyse data. One of the main advantages of systematic management is its ability to analyse vast amounts of data and use the analysis to create well-diversified portfolios.
Our method of quantitative management focuses on three core values that have a proven historical track record. We look for high quality companies with controlled risk that we can invest in at attractive valuations.
The management team sifts through the large amount of data, looking at specific parameters such as company size, valuations or sustainability. The team systematically selects the top-ranked companies within each parameter. Diversification and risk awareness are essential elements in the composition of a portfolio. The teams use the same structured, objective and systematic process for all our funds, adapting the selection criteria according to the various requirements of the local markets.
Our investment process is based on well-established investment theory. Additionally, it is supported by statistical and economic analysis, fundamental equity insights and economic science. We are meticulous in every detail of the investment process.
In addition, the team offers index funds and custom made solutions with exposure to different regions and markets. The objective is to track the return of a predefined benchmark. This is obtained through effective and transparent management either by full replication or optimization.
Management decisions are based on quantitative models which keep the risk exposures and returns very close to the benchmark. Investments are managed in a precise and systematic manner, always aiming to minimize active risk while taking into consideration the transaction costs involved. ESG is an important and natural element in our management as our indexes reflect SEB's view on responsible investments.
The equities team manages Nordic, European, Global and Thematic Equity funds.
We invest in quality companies with viable business models and good growth opportunities. The investment process relies on in depthin-depth knowledge of the companies, based on rigorous fundamental research and regular interaction with the companies. The resulting portfolios are bottom–up constructions, consisting of the stocks that we have most confidence in and want to hold for the long run.
