NorthStar Ethical Adventurous Growth Portfolio

Available from January 2025

Investment Objective

The NorthStar Ethical Adventurous Growth Portfolio is suitable for investors who are seeking to invest ‘ethically’ and are seeking very strong long-term capital growth. Investors must be prepared to accept significant short-term fluctuation in order to achieve this aim. The portfolio is constructed using a broad range of assets which may include equities, fixed income, property, infrastructure, alternative investments and cash. Investments are predominantly held in assets that seek to promote environmental, ethical, sustainable and socially responsible causes and exclude companies that promote or produce tobacco, fossil fuels, arms, gambling, animal testing and similar activities. Equity content will typically be in excess of 90%, meaning the portfolio will exhibit significant downside risk to achieve the required level of capital growth.

Due to the nature of underlying holdings, investment in this portfolio should be seen as a long-term strategy. Risk aspects include inflation risk, capital risk, shortfall risk, and exchange rate risk. The key objective of the portfolio is to adhere to high ethical, sustainable and socially responsible standards at all times. These considerations will always take precedence over portfolio returns. The portfolio targets capital growth in excess of 7-8% per annum over a rolling 5-year period and is benchmarked against a composite of 60% IA Global sector average and 40% IA Volatility Managed sector average. Values may fall as well as rise and investors may not get back the amount originally invested.
