Fund Aims
Objective: The investment strategy of the fund is to purchase units in the Royal London Sustainable Leaders Trust - the underlying fund.
Underlying Fund Objective: The fund is actively managed and aims to achieve capital growth where at least 80% of the fund is invested in shares of UK companies that are listed in the UK. UK companies are those that are either domiciled in, incorporated in, or have a significant economic exposure to, the UK.
The remainder of the fund (up to 20%) may be invested in shares of overseas listed companies. Overall, at least 70% of the fund is invested in sustainable companies or issuers and up to 30% may be held in non-sustainable companies or issuers (as defined in the Investment Strategy section). The remaining portfolio will not conflict with the sustainability objective of the fund which includes “Screening for conflict with the sustainability objective”.
The Scheme’s sustainability objective is to invest in companies that make a positive contribution to one or more of the “Sustainability Themes” (listed below), through their products or services as determined by the Investment Adviser using its Sustainability Standard (as defined in the Investment Strategy). • Clean – to support the low carbon economy, the reduction of carbon emissions and/or the prevention or remediation of negative environmental impacts such as pollution and biodiversity loss. • Healthy – to support the protection and improvement of people's mental and physical health and wellbeing. • Safe – to support the prevention of physical and mental harm and injury in homes and workplaces and/or keeping data and information safe and secure. • Inclusive – to support people to participate in economic and social life by providing products and services which are affordable, accessible and of a quality that supports equitable treatment of customers and/ or people in society. At least 80% of the fund is invested in UK companies which are listed on the London Stock Exchange. The remainder of the fund's assets may be invested in overseas stock markets to access areas that would otherwise be unavailable. Overall, at least 70% of the fund is invested in Sustainable Companies. Up to 30% may be held in Non-Sustainable Companies. The fund is actively managed and may invest in a range of other assets, including derivatives, for diversification, liquidity or efficient portfolio management (“EPM”) purposes: •
Up to 10% of the fund may be invested in other funds known as collective investment schemes (including funds managed by RLUM Limited or another Royal London Group company) and transferrable securities. The fund may use derivatives for the purposes of efficient portfolio management (including hedging). The use of derivatives for this purpose is unlikely to increase the risk profile of the fund. Cash may be held for investment purposes and to manage inflows and outflows of investors’ money in the fund, however cash is not expected to exceed 5% of the fund.
The fund may at times be concentrated in terms of the number of investments it holds (i.e. have less than 50 holdings).

Important Information
Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.
Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).
Source of portfolio data: Broadridge. Source of performance data: FE fundinfo. We can’t predict the future. Past performance isn’t a guide to future performance. The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of product charges, or any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now. Fund performance is based upon the movement of the daily price and is shown as total return in GBP with net income reinvested. The value of your investment can go down as well as up so you might get back less than you put in.
