• The Fund's Portfolio Advisors screen for small and mid cap companies which typically possess strong management capabilities, strategic advantages, financial health and fit the Fund's social responsibility criteria. In the Portfolio Advisors' opinion, these companies have above-average earnings growth potential and favourable valuation levels with respect to these expectations.

  The Portfolio Advisors seek to invest in companies that, among other screening criteria, achieve excellence in global environmental impact management; have positive employment and labour practices; contribute to socio-economic development through community involvement initiatives; and maintain an admirable corporate governance policy.
