Our ESG portfolio service

Aiming to generate performance while benefitting society 

Many of our clients are concerned about the nature of their investments and the environmental or ethical record of the companies involved. They don’t wish to invest in dubious enterprises, but at the same time they can’t afford to invest their money in specialist ethical funds or businesses that offer too little return or too great a risk.

If this reflects any of your clients’ views, we can help with our ESG Portfolio Service.

Our ESG portfolios are designed to:

  • Aim to deliver consistent, inflation-adjusted real returns
  • Give your clients access to our global investment ideas and research
  • Offer your clients the flexibility to choose the parameters of their ESG portfolio to suit their needs and preferences
  • Be supported and protected by our robust and disciplined investment process
  • Be managed by an accessible and dedicated CGWM team.

Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management was one of the first top 10 independent UK wealth managers to offer an ESG Portfolio Service that allows clients to align their investments more closely with their own values. By investing with us, your clients will be investing not only for their own futures, but for the future of the environment and society.

Investment involves risk. The value of investments and the income from them can go down as well as up and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Our portfolios are designed to work over a typical investment cycle of seven to ten years, so we recommend you stay invested for at least seven years.

The information provided is not to be treated as specific advice. It has no regard for the specific investment objectives, financial situation or needs of any specific person or entity.

Investment Director/ Team Leader

I joined Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management as part of the acquisition of Punter Southall Wealth (PSW) and I manage a range of different portfolios, including private clients, trusts and charities. I specialise in ESG investing and launched PSW’s SRI Service in 2019. I began my career at Neptune Investment Management, helping to build relationships with discretionary fund managers and institutional clients. I hold a BA in politics from Nottingham University, have completed the IMC, the Chartered Wealth Management Qualification (level 7), the CFA ESG Certificate and achieved a distinction for my master’s degree in wealth management at Cass Business School. I was also named in Citywire’s Top 30 under 30 Wealth Managers for 2019.
