Investment Objective To provide exposure to large capitalisation stocks in the US with a greater emphasis on those stocks deemed more environmentally and socially responsible.

Keep reading the KID section ▾

Investment PolicyThe Fund invests in equities of companies of large capitalisation in the US that are included in the benchmark. The Index is based on the S&P 500 Index -NR, (the "Parent Index") which is comprised of large cap stocks in the US. The Index is designed to measure the performance of the constituents in the Parent Index that meet the sustainability criteria defined for the Index. The Index aims to improve the overall S&P Global ESG Score relative to the Parent Index by over- or underweighting companies based on their S&P Global ESG Scores. The S&P Global ESG Score measures a company's performance on and management of material ESG risks, opportunities and impacts and considers risks, opportunities and impacts to be material if they present a significant impact on society or the environment and a significant impact on a company's value drivers, competitive position and long-term shareholder value creation. These are informed by a combination of company disclosures, media and stakeholder analysis, modelling approaches and in-depth company engagement via the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment, which is an annual evaluation of the sustainability practices of over 13,000 companies. Derivatives and techniques The Fund may use derivatives for hedging and efficient portfolio management. Strategy The investment manager seeks to minimise the difference between the Fund’s performance and that of the benchmark (tracking error), regardless of whether the benchmark level rises or falls. SFDR category Article 8 (promotes environmental and/or social characteristics under EU regulations). The benchmark is designed to have a lower carbon intensity and a higher ESG score than its parent index (S&P World Index-NR). It also excludes companies involved in controversial business or whose products have negative social or environmental impacts or are deemed to violate the UN Global Compact Principles or other international norms.

Drawdown — distance from previous peak

This isn’t the return: it shows how far the fund is below its previous peak. 0% = you’re at the peak; below zero = how much you’re down and haven’t recovered yet.

From month-end NAVs, over the fund’s full history, on the series shown in the chart (dividends reinvested where declared). Deeper colour = larger move.
Source: Franklin Templeton. Issuer-declared historical series; inflation: Eurostat and national statistical institutes, latest available July 2026 — for later days the index stays at the last published value (institutes publish with a few weeks’ lag). The «adjusted for inflation» view expresses value in today’s purchasing power for the selected country; volatility always stays nominal, as elsewhere on the site (deflating it would add artificial swings caused by the monthly cadence of the price index). Past performance is not indicative of future results: these are facts, not a recommendation.

Windows longer than the available price history cannot be computed and are not shown: they will appear on their own as time passes. The max drawdown is identical across windows because the deepest fall is recent (peak 9 Jan 2026 → trough 30 Mar 2026): one episode dominates every look-back period. Computed from the daily NAV series, always in nominal terms. Sharpe and Sortino use the ECB main refinancing rate averaged over the period (last year: 2.21%), weighted by days in force, as the risk-free rate. Same formulas as our public methodology: sample standard deviation annualised over 252 days; Sortino with downside deviation. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Figures in EUR — series converted day by day at ECB reference rates; the table follows the currency selected in the chart.
