Reasons to allocate
MULTI ASSET CLASS AND IMPACT THEMES
The portfolio aims to have a mix of social and environmental impact across its spectrum of investments that diversify across Private Equity, Private Debt, Reals Assets and Infrastructure. Our gender-lens investment mandate focuses our investible universe into funds and managers addressing SDG 5 (Gender Equality).
OPPORTUNITY TO POSITIVELY IMPACT WOMEN
The portfolio has projections to impact over 2.3 million women across multiple investment sub-themes including: Asset Lending, Microfinance, SME Financing, Water & Sanitation, Education & Employment, Skills, Clean Energy, Social Housing and Diverse Leadership.
COMPETITIVE RETURN
Our manager selection process resulted in the selection of high-quality impact funds that have delivered risk-adjusted returns. Our back-test portfolio has outperformed the APRA Alts Benchmark (50% Public Equity, 50% Public Debt) across the 5-year lookback period.
AVOIDANCE OF IMPACT WASHING
Our intention to deliver true-to-label impact is made possible through the core principles of impact investing, intentionality, measurability, and contribution. Impact diligence first starts from the alignment of each manager intentionality through the alignment objectives and outcomes to the Sustainable Development Goals and the underlying targets, impact is measured utilising industry leading IRIS+ and IMP 5 Dimensions of Impact frameworks and contribution is assessed through their alignment with the Operating Principles of Impact Management.
