Description

Invesco Global Active ESG Equity UCITS ETF EUR PfHdg Acc is an actively managed ETF: it does not track an index — the declared index (MSCI World Total Return (Net) Index) is a comparison yardstick only. The declared annual cost (TER) is 0.30%, plus 0.10% in transaction costs estimated by the issuer in the KID. Income is accumulated and reinvested in the fund. The fund has assets of about 2.5 billion euro, was launched on 30 July 2019 and is domiciled in Ireland. In our registry 8 other ETFs declare the same index.

The fund’s objective — in the issuer’s words

Investment objective: The objective of the Fund is to achieve a long-term return in excess of the MSCI World Index (the "Benchmark"), by investing in an actively managed portfolio of global equities that meets a defined set of environmental, social, and corporate governance criteria (the "ESG Criteria"). Dividend Policy: This Share Class does not pay you income, but instead reinvests it to grow your capital, in line with its stated objectives.

Keep reading the KID section ▾

Redemption and Dealing of Shares:The Fund's shares are listed on one or more Stock Exchange(s). Investors can buy or sell shares daily through an intermediary directly or on Stock Exchange(s) on which the shares are traded. In exceptional circumstances investors will be permitted to redeem their shares directly from the Umbrella Fund in accordance with the redemption procedures set out in the prospectus, subject to any applicable laws and relevant charges. Investment approach: To achieve the investment objective, the Fund invests in shares of companies from developed markets worldwide. Eligible stocks are screened for compliance with the Fund’s ESG Criteria, which incorporates both exclusion criteria (based on an issuers exposure to controversial business activities or ESG controversies) and a best-in-class approach which selects those securities from each industry that score highest according to the Sub-Investment Manager’s scoring system. Eligible stocks are then scored based on their attractiveness with respect to three investment factors: Value (i.e. companies perceived to be ‘inexpensive’ relative to market averages); Quality (i.e. companies that demonstrate stronger balance sheets relative to market averages); and Momentum (i.e. companies whose historical share price performance or earnings growth have exceeded market averages). The Fund holds a sub-set of these stocks, using an optimisation process that seeks to maximise exposure to those investment factors whilst targeting a risk profile that is consistent with the Fund’s investment objective. The portfolio construction and optimisation process also aims to reduce the Fund’s revenue-based carbon emissions intensity by at least 50% compared to the Benchmark. The optimisation process also implements a self-decarbonisation portfolio constraint, a 7% year on year reduction in the intensity of funded carbon emissions. Fund holdings are rebalanced monthly. The "quantitative investment model" uses mathematical, logical and statistical techniques for stock selection purposes. The Fund will not seek to track the performance of the Index. The Fund will hold an actively managed portfolio of equities with the aim of delivering superior risk adjusted returns over the long term when compared with the performance of global equity markets, for which the Index serves as a reference. Investors should note that the Benchmark is the intellectual property of the index provider. The Fund is not sponsored or endorsed by the index provider and a full disclaimer can be found in the Fund’s supplement. The Fund may use derivative instruments for the purposes of managing risk, reducing costs, generating additional capital or income.

Intended Retail InvestorThe Fund is intended for investors aiming for long term capital growth, who may not have specific financial expertise but are able to make an informed investment decision based on this document, the supplement, and the prospectus, have a risk appetite consistent with the risk indicator displayed below and understand that there is no capital guarantee or protection (100% of capital is at risk). Practical Information Fund Depositary: The Bank of New York Mellon SA/NV, Dublin Branch, Riverside Two, Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin 2, D02 KV60, Ireland. Find out more: This document is specific to the Fund. Further information about the Fund can be obtained from the supplement, the prospectus, annual and interim reports. The prospectus, annual and interim reports are prepared for the Umbrella Fund, of which the Fund is a sub-fund. These documents are available free of charge in English. They can be obtained along with other information, such as share prices, at https://etf.invesco.com (select your country and navigate to the Documents section on the product page), or by calling +353 1 439 8000. The assets of the Fund are segregated as a matter of Irish law and as such, in Ireland, the assets of one sub-fund will not be available to satisfy the liabilities of another sub-fund. This position may be considered differently by the courts in jurisdictions outside of Ireland. Subject to satisfying certain criteria as set out in the prospectus, investors may be able to exchange their investment in the Fund for shares in another sub-fund of the Umbrella which is being offered at that time.

Currency-hedged share class: our figures are computed on the issuer’s NAV, where the hedge is applied at the daily fixing. Comparison sites using the exchange price may show returns and volatility that differ by 1–2 points: on hedged classes the price-vs-NAV gap is structurally wider and grows with the length of the window. Not a data error — a measurement convention. Details in the methodology.

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.

Source: Invesco. 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.
