Virgin Money Launch Climate Change Investment Fund

April 9, 2008 · Filed Under News 

If you’re thinking of a new investment, perhaps looking for a new ISA in this new tax year, but want to do something ‘green’ then this might be of interest!

Virgin Money have recently launched their Climate Change Fund, which is actively managed by GLG Partners, the world class fund managers with a proven track record of high returns, only previously accessible in the UK by the very wealthy and large corporate investors.

So why is the Climate Change Fund different?

1. It is an actively managed fund aiming to provide market leading returns by investing in specially selected companies that are driving outstanding profit growth and are environmental leaders in their industry.

2. Research shows environmentally aware companies are starting to outperform others. Customers prefer them, and they’re not saddled with penalties for pollution imposed by governments and regulators.

3. Unlike typical ‘environmental’ funds, The Climate Change Fund can invest in all industries and sectors offering high-growth opportunities.

4. The fund ‘cherry picks’ the companies with good environmental credentials from each industry, and identifies those with the highest potential returns.

5. You can invest up to £7,000 a year tax-efficiently through a Virgin ISA. You can pay in lump sums of £100 or more (£500 minimum opening investment) or regular monthly savings of £50 or more.

6. There’s an annual management fee of 1.75%. There may also be a performance related fee*, which is only earned if the fund outperforms agreed benchmarks.

7. No notice periods mean you can get at your money whenever you want.
