Managed by Sit Investment Associates, this fund targets large- and medium-capitalization companies globally, selecting firms deemed to have strong ESG credentials at the time of purchase. By maintaining at least 80% of its net assets in such companies, the fund aims to align growth objectives with responsible investment principles, making it suitable for investors seeking to integrate sustainability into their portfolios. The fund features a relatively concentrated portfolio, with a significant portion of assets allocated to its top holdings, enhancing its potential for focused growth.

While adhering to ESG criteria, the fund may still have exposure to sectors with environmental or social controversies, as ESG methodologies vary in stringency.
