Liontrust Sustainable Investment Annual Review 2021 - International - Report - Page 23
Alignment of SF strategies with the UN’s SDGs
as a more comprehensive way of thinking about and reporting on
sustainable investing.
Our clients have also asked us to show how the companies in
which we invest are aligned with the UN’s SDGs. The SDGs are an
internationally recognised set of goals to aim for by 2030, which will
help the world develop in a more sustainable way. They replaced the
UN’s Millennium Goals and have captured many investors’ interest
Each of our themes is limited to one main SDG, although, in reality,
there are overlaps and most companies are exposed to more than
one goal.
