Driehaus Sustainable Emerging Markets Fund Updated Investment Policy

We are pleased to announce that Heptagon and Driehaus Capital Management LLC officially updated the investment policy of their Emerging Markets UCITS Fund to include Environmental, Social and Governance criteria.

Commenting on recent developments, PM Richard Thies said; “We do not anticipate any large changes by transitioning from the traditional Emerging Markets Fund to a Sustainable Emerging Markets Fund. We will not be changing the existing investment process, but rather enhancing our current investment process and guidelines to include more focus on ESG factors, less oil/gas, no casinos, more health care exposure and a stronger focus on governance.”

This rebrand aligns with Heptagon Capital’s belief that a responsible approach to the development and offering of products and services is paramount in building the long-term success of our business.
