Febelfin Towards Sustainability label

Schroders has been awarded the Febelfin Label for a selection of 12 funds.

Embracing change

Social and environmental change is happening faster than ever. Global warming, shifting demographics and the technology revolution are reshaping our planet. Against this backdrop the gap between investment winners and losers is set to widen and conventional financial analysis is likely to fall short.

Celebrating Febelfin's label

As of today, 12 Schroders funds are entitled to carry the Febelfin sustainability label.
This label means that these funds adhere to the highest quality standards for sustainable and socially responsible financial products.

It has been more than a year since the Belgian organization Febelfin, in consultation with its stakeholders, has developed a quality standard for sustainable financial products, including investment funds. Products that comply with the requirements for this standard are awarded the sustainability label. Schroders is pleased with this recognition of the ESG approach.
