Sustainable Investments: Clarifications

Important definitions, limits, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings and establish a common foundation for responsible investing.

Definition
What does "sustainable investments" mean in this context?
Here, the term refers to an investment strategy that systematically integrates environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria into analysis and decision-making. It is about the long-term development of portfolios, not short-term speculation.
Environment
Does the environmental focus refer exclusively to climate?
No. While climate protection is a central pillar, the consideration of the environment also includes the protection of biodiversity, water resources, circular economy, and the avoidance of environmental pollution. The strategy is holistic.
Responsibility
Who is responsible for selecting the investments?
The ultimate responsibility for investment decisions lies with the investor. Our role is to provide information, analyses, and a framework for developing a personal, sustainable investment strategy. Individual advice is required.
Strategy
Is a sustainable strategy automatically a low-risk strategy?
No. Like all forms of investment, sustainable investments are subject to market risks, liquidity risks, and specific ESG risks. Integrating sustainability criteria aims for better risk management but does not eliminate risks.
Development
Does "development" refer only to financial performance?
No. Development here refers to the dual objective corridor: the positive development of invested capital in harmony with the development towards a more socially just and ecologically stable economy. Both aspects are considered together.
