Invest in infrastructure with a purpose

The Fund seeks to invest in infrastructure companies that can contribute to or benefit from sustainable development, as defined by the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Given infrastructure assets’ large environmental footprints and social licence to operate, investment in this space will play a central role in working towards these goals. Of the 17 primary SDGs, we have identified six as being particularly relevant to listed infrastructure companies.

Our analysis of company alignment with these SDGs represents a key element of the Fund’s investment process and stock selection decisions.

The full list of SDGs can be found on the United Nations’ website

An unwavering focus on responsible investment

“We look for infrastructure companies that can contribute to, or benefit from, sustainable development as defined by the UN Sustainable Development Goals.”

Rebecca Sherlock, Global Listed Infrastructure Portfolio Manager

Infrastructure companies are leading a global shift to cleaner energy, next-gen transport networks and increasing mobile connectivity. The First Sentier Responsible Listed Infrastructure Fund is a high-conviction portfolio with an unwavering focus on responsible investment and positive, long-term outcomes.

 

 

The First Sentier Investors Responsible Listed Infrastructure Fund has been certified by the Responsible Investment Association Australasia according to the strict operational and disclosure practices required under the Responsible Investment Certification Program.

We find companies solving global infrastructure challenges

Infrastructure companies are long life assets with large environmental footprints and social licences to operate. The asset class is uniquely positioned to provide solutions in the transition to a net zero world.

Whether we are analysing renewables companies, water utilities, toll roads or mobile towers, we look for companies that are contributing to sustainable development and solving challenges around digital connectivity, urban congestion and renewable energy.

We favour assets with high barriers to entry, effective pricing power, sustainable growth and predictable cash flows.
