Elevation Capital Global Shares Fund

About this fund

In their own words

The Fund mainly invests in the shares of listed companies, although it may invest in unlisted companies up to total limit of 10% of Net Asset Value of the Fund. The companies we invest in may be based and operate anywhere in the world.

The principal objective of the Fund is to achieve positive absolute returns after fees and expenses, but before tax over the long term (that is a period of at least five years). The investment objectives and policy for the Fund are broadly drafted so as to provide us with the mandate to seek on behalf of investors long-term income and capital growth by directly investing in equities on a global basis.

Investment Exclusions

Does this fund exclude companies that cause deep concern to New Zealanders? The first column shows if the fund has a credible policy to exclude the issue. The second column shows if there are any current investments (source: Mindful Money research).

Note that the fund’s exclusions policy may not be consistent with its portfolio holdings because the fund might be still implementing its policy change or the fund’s exclusion policy and thresholds may be different from the definitions applied by Mindful Money.

This data is compiled by Mindful Money from the fund information and portfolios that each fund has filed with the Disclose register to 30th Sept. 2022 and Mindful Money analysis of funds within those portfolios. The list of companies of concern has been drawn from ratings agencies and public sources, including the Norwegian Sovereign Fund, NZ Super Fund, Sustainalytics and research organisations.

Note that many funds exclude controversial weapons. However, the category of Weapons used in this analysis is broader in scope, covering all munitions, firearms and military weapons. Similarly Mindful Money uses a broader scope for fossil fuels than the government’s rules for default KiwiSaver funds. The full definitions used in the Mindful Money analysis are here.
