This information has been sourced from the quarterly data that each fund has filed with Disclose register to 31st Dec. 2024.
This data is compiled by Mindful Money from the fund information and portfolios

be different from the exclusions policy and definitions applied by the fund provider.

for ethical investment and responsible investment. This does not imply that
other funds are unethical or that the fund providers that do not meet these
standards are unethical providers.
