Why choose the Ethical World Fund?

Ethical by design

Every investment undergoes a rigorous qualitative and quantitative due diligence process guided by an independent Ethical Oversight Committee.

Fossil Fuel Conscious

Seeks to avoid exposure to companies involved in coal, oil, or gas, including tar sands and fracking.

Focused on the future

Dedicated allocation to renewable energy assets, a strategic position, not a marketing one.

Targeting net zero

Built with a clear target to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030.

Diversified for resilience

Guided by an External Ethical Oversight Committee of practising academics in ESG research. Governance, not just good intentions.

A disciplined, active approach to ethical investing.

Active Investment Approach

Asset allocation flexes tactically, skewing towards areas the managers believe represent better value over a 5+ year horizon. The fund isn't constrained to a static split, it's actively managed within clear risk parameters.

Ethical Oversight

Every fund considered for inclusion is assessed against our proprietary 70+ question scoring system, covering fossil divestment, plastic reduction, employment diversity, manager culture and business practices. Guided by our independent External Ethical Oversight Committee, not just internal opinion.

The Ethical Alpha

The most common objection to ethical investing is that it limits returns. Our published research, academic evidence and track record suggest otherwise. Ethical strategies can match or outperform conventional approaches, and often exhibit lower volatility, making them a valuable portfolio component, not just a conscience play.

Net Zero Carbon.

An ethical initiative by P1

The fund is aligned with the Net-Zero Carbon investor target, which prioritises carbon neutrality rather than just emissions reduction.

Guided by climate scientists and our independent Ethical Oversight Committee, the fund directs capital towards sustainable and low-carbon opportunities, ensuring investments meet strong environmental, social and governance standards.

P1 developed the NZC10 framework to encourage fund managers to commit to meaningful carbon neutrality timelines. Our engagement has driven real change, resulting in fossil divestment pledges and carbon-neutral commitments from underlying managers.
