ESG and Sustainable investing
In broad terms "ESG and Sustainable investing" products include investment approaches or instruments which consider environmental, social, governance and/or other sustainability factors to varying degrees. Certain instruments we classify as sustainable may be in the process of changing to deliver sustainability outcomes.
There is no guarantee that ESG and Sustainable investing products will produce returns similar to those which don't consider these factors. ESG and Sustainable investing products may diverge from traditional market benchmarks.
In addition, there is no standard definition of, or measurement criteria for ESG and Sustainable investing, or the impact of ESG and Sustainable investing. ESG and Sustainable investing and related impact measurement criteria are (a) highly subjective and (b) may vary significantly across and within sectors. Bank may rely on measurement criteria devised and/or reported by third party providers or issuers. Bank does not always conduct its own specific due diligence in relation to measurement criteria. There is no guarantee: (a) that the nature of the ESG / sustainability impact or measurement criteria of an investment will be aligned with any particular investor's sustainability goals; or (b) that the stated level or target level of ESG / sustainability impact will be achieved.
ESG and Sustainable investing is an evolving area and new regulations are being developed which will affect how an investment is categorised or labelled. An investment which is considered to fulfil sustainable criteria today may not meet those criteria at some point in the future.
