About the fund

This fund invests in a broad selection of NZ listed companies with potential for growth of income and capital, and may also invest in some Australian shares if the portfolio managers see opportunities, as part of an actively managed portfolio. 

This fund provides a combination of specific exclusions and Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) integration, which considers the sustainability of companies. 

The fund deliberately avoids investing in certain companies, industries, and sectors and aims to align social and personal values while still providing competitive returns.

Managed by a dedicated, institutional calibre SRI portfolio manager, the GoalsGetter Amova SRI Equity Fund comprises 30-35 New Zealand and Australian companies.
