Investment objective

Objective & mandate.

The Quorum Core RG3 Ethical ESG portfolio targets long-term capital growth with a sustainable investment mandate. The portfolio applies both negative and positive screens: it excludes companies involved in tobacco, weapons manufacturing, fossil fuel extraction, and gambling, while favouring companies that are leaders in environmental management, social impact, and governance.

Benchmark: IA Mixed Investment 40–85% Shares sector. Risk grade 3 (Balanced) on the Quorum Capital 1–6 scale. Suitable for investors with a minimum five-year time horizon and a moderate tolerance for interim volatility.

The Investment Committee applies ESG analysis alongside traditional fundamental research. The portfolio is rebalanced when holdings drift more than 5% from target weight, or at each quarterly IC review. Holdings are reviewed against ESG criteria at least annually.
