Fund Aims
Objective: The investment strategy of the fund is to purchase units in the M&G UK Sustain Paris Aligned Fund - the underlying fund.
Underlying Fund objective: The Fund aims to: • Provide a higher total return (capital growth plus income), net of the Ongoing Charge Figure, than that of the FTSE Custom All-Share ex IT Exclusions 5% Capped Index over any five-year period, and • As its Sustainability Goal, support the mitigation of climate change by investing at least 70% of the Fund in companies that contribute towards the Paris Agreement climate change goal* and have the potential to reduce their contribution to climate change determined by their potential to decarbonise their operations over time and ultimately reach Net Zero**.
*The overarching Paris Agreement climate change goal is to hold the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels and pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels. The principal way to achieve this is to avoid the buildup of greenhouse gases, which in turn will prevent the most severe impacts of climate change, such as extreme weather events, sea-level rise, and biodiversity loss.
**The long term target is for investments made by the Fund to reach Net Zero by 2050.

Important Information
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.
