About IGSLX
The Impax Global Social Leaders Fund Investor Class is an actively managed mutual fund that focuses on global equity investments in companies demonstrating strong corporate cultures and a commitment to societal benefit. Its primary function is to identify and invest in businesses that address long-term demographic and social trends—such as aging populations, rising chronic disease, urbanization, and expanding access to basic needs and economic participation. Leveraging a proprietary social taxonomy, the fund requires portfolio companies to generate at least 20% of their revenue from products or services that benefit society, ensuring a meaningful impact on core societal needs.
The fund employs fundamental research and extensive environmental, social, and governance (ESG) analysis to select high-quality, competitively advantaged companies trading below intrinsic value. It is diversified across regions, with notable allocations to the United States, United Kingdom, Europe, and Asia, and spans multiple sectors including technology, healthcare, consumer cyclical, and financial services. The fund benchmarks its performance to the MSCI ACWI Index, positioning itself within the global large-cap growth category, and plays an important role for investors seeking exposure to socially conscious businesses that are poised to benefit from key structural and societal changes.
