Sustainable investing

We offer more than two decades of experience in helping clients balance their financial and sustainability objectives. Developing a sustainable investment strategy starts with understanding your values, interests, and goals, and building your portfolio requires the type of in-depth research on investment managers that we are continuously conducting. 

A philosophy rooted in research, shaped by experience

Whether you’re seeking to focus your portfolio on climate change mitigation, generating economic opportunity for underserved communities, or improving diversity and inclusion among women and underrepresented groups, we’ll help you set a plan.




Constructing a purpose-driven portfolio

Building a diversified, sustainable investment portfolio can be daunting. We spend significant time to explore clients' values and interests, provide insights on the sustainable investing landscape and create an adaptable framework.

Our customized approach to developing a sustainable investing strategy clarifies goals, anticipates potential risk and return trade-offs and devises an implementation strategy.

  • Opportunity. What are the social or environmental issues the portfolio will address?
  • Purpose. What does long-term success look like for your portfolio?
  • Principles. What are the rules of the road for portfolio implementation?
  • Objectives. Which investment tools and strategies will be used to pursue the portfolio’s purpose?
  • Progress. How will success be measured and where will changes be made over time?

Industry collaboration

Our strategic partnerships with industry leaders help to advance the sustainable investing industry. Below are some of the initiatives we are active in, some independently and others more broadly across the wider Franklin Templeton organization.
