Les fonds Irish Liquidity Fund d'Aviva Investors permettent aux clients de tirer parti des fonds relevant de l'Article 8 de manière anticipée

(Londres) - Aviva Investors, la branche de gestion d’actifs internationale d’Aviva plc, a obtenu la classification en vertu de l’Article 8 du Règlement européen sur la publication d’informations en matière de durabilité dans le secteur des services financiers (SFDR) pour la majeure partie de sa gamme de fonds Irish OEIC Liquidity Fund de 38,5 milliards de livres sterling*.

Le gestionnaire d’actifs de 262 milliards de livres sterling vise à obtenir le statut de fonds relevant de l’Article 8 pour la majorité de ses fonds de placement collectif domiciliés en Europe d’ici la fin du deuxième trimestre, sous réserve de l’approbation des autorités réglementaires. Cette démarche s’inscrit dans le cadre de son ambition de contribuer à créer un avenir plus durable, inclusif et à faible émission de carbone pour ses clients et la société, tout en aidant Aviva Plc à devenir une entreprise neutre en carbone d’ici 2040.

L’offre actuelle de fonds relevant de l’Article 8 d’Aviva Investors comprend la gamme Transition durable, dont les thèmes d’investissement en titres de crédit, actions et actifs réels portent sur le climat, le capital naturel et la société.

Le SFDR est entré en vigueur en mars 2021 dans le but de rendre le profil de durabilité des fonds plus comparable et plus facile à comprendre pour les investisseurs. La législation catégorise les produits en types spécifiques et inclut des indicateurs pour évaluer les impacts environnementaux, sociaux et de gouvernance (ESG) du processus d’investissement pour chaque fonds.

Les fonds relevant de l’article 8 promeuvent des caractéristiques environnementales ou sociales, ou une combinaison de ces caractéristiques, pour autant que les sociétés dans lesquelles les investissements sont réalisés appliquent des pratiques de bonne gouvernance,

Anthony Callcott, responsable mondial des ventes, Liquidité, chez Aviva Investors, a déclaré :

« Il s’agit d’une étape clé pour Aviva Investors et nous sommes heureux que la quasi-totalité de nos fonds monétaires aient été classés comme fonds relevant de l’Article 8 au début de ce qui sera certainement un processus de transformation pour le secteur de la gestion d’actifs. L’investissement responsable est au cœur de notre offre de fonds relevant de l’Article 8 pour le marché de la liquidité et nous pensons qu’il s’agit de la solution idéale pour nos clients. »

Caroline Hedges, responsable du crédit chez Aviva Investors, a déclaré :

« Nos clients exigent de plus en plus que leur argent soit investi de manière responsable afin de contribuer à créer le type de retraite qu’ils souhaitent pour eux-mêmes et leur famille. Cela fait partie intégrante de la philosophie et de l’approche d’investissement que nous appliquons à la gamme de fonds monétaires relevant de l’Article 8 et constitue une référence pour ce que nous voulons accomplir pour l’ensemble de notre activité de crédit. »

Aviva Investors a mis à jour les prospectus des fonds de l’UE, les informations sur les produits sur le site Web et les documents d’informations clés pour l’investisseur afin de se conformer aux règles du SFDR le cas échéant, ainsi que les politiques d’investissement responsable.
