Over the past year, there hasn’t been a great deal of movement in our list of fund managers’ favourite sustainable-themed international companies, which ranks the largest or most overweight positions from a selection of top-performing ESG funds.
In truth, there hasn’t been a major shift since we first started publishing the rankings in 2021, amid an explosion of interest in ethical investing.
That’s because from the jump, the most prominent names on the list have been the same extremely prominent names on every global equity fund. Apple (US:AAPL), Google-parent Alphabet (US:GOOG), and the pre-eminent star of ESG funds, Microsoft (US:MSFT) have all been constants, more recently joined by market-moving chipmaker Nvidia (US:NVDA).
