Why invest in SRI Portfolios

  • Support companies that focus on environmental, social and corporate governance qualities
  • Same low management fees as all other Questwealth Portfolios
  • A great way for you to invest well while doing good

Social and corporate governance ETFs

Invest in companies that aim to hold themselves to a high ethical standard and have a good track record on labour management, health & safety, and anti-competitive practices.

Low carbon ETFs

Businesses that produce a smaller carbon footprint, as measured by lower greenhouse gas and carbon emissions, relative to the broader market.

Cleantech ETFs

Companies that derive the majority of their revenue or operating profits from leveraging technology to reduce or optimize the use of natural resources (like wind and solar companies).

The SRI portfolios all use SRI-focused ETFs. This gives you the benefit of diversification and lower fees.

When opening an account and answering questions to match you with a portfolio, you'll have the option to choose an SRI portfolio.

Nope. You'll pay the same management fee as the rest of our portfolios.

For Questwealth SRI portfolios, as there is no universal Socially Responsible Investing ("SRI") methodology, the selection of the underlying securities in the Questwealth SRI portfolios is based on inputs from various industry sources, including Environmental, Social, Governance, and SRI methodologies. Certain portions of the fixed income component of the Questwealth SRI portfolios may not be recognized by these methodologies as exclusively SRI investments.

For all returns presented; management fees, optional charges or income taxes payable by Questwealth clients that would have reduced returns are not taken into account. Dividend yield is the weighted average of dividends from each ETF within the portfolio paid out in the last 12 months, divided by the share price of the portfolio as at #Date#.

1 Cumulative returns show how much your investments have grown or declined – in total – over a multi-year period leading up to the as at date.The inception date for the cumulative returns of our Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) Portfolios is November 2018.

2 Calendar returns show how much your investments have grown or declined – on average – over each calendar year of a multi-year period. Returns are not guaranteed and the values of the underlying ETFs change frequently. Past performance may not be repeated.
