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

Please note that companies may breach more than one of these areas of concern.

The listing of companies of concern is based on definitions used in Mindful Money's methodology. These definitions may be different from the exclusions policy and definitions applied by the fund provider.

About this fund

The fund invests predominantly in growth assets such as New Zealand, Australian, international shares and property but includes some income assets. The allocations include a bias towards international diversification, and exposure to these asset classes is achieved by primarily investing in DFA Australia Limited (Dimensional) funds, utilising their Sustainability Trusts where available. Dimensional funds have an increased exposure to shares in small companies, value companies and companies with higher profitability with the objective of benefitting from a premium return from these companies over time. Such premiums are not always present year on year, which can drive shorter term differences in returns.
