BNP Paribas Asset Management announces the launch of an innovative environment-themed long/short equity strategy – EARTH – which aims to support companies who are engaged on the energy transition or in protecting natural capital.

As part of ongoing commitment to deliver sustainable investment solutions, BNP Paribas Asset Management (BNPP AM) are pleased to announce the launch of BNP Paribas Environmental Absolute Return Thematic (EARTH).

Managed by the same portfolio managers as BNP Paribas Energy Transition, BNP Paribas EARTH invests in companies whose products or services aim to:

  • Reduce energy-related carbon emissions responsible for 70% of total carbon emissions today, in particular those focused on decarbonising, digitalising and decentralising the global energy system;
  • Solve ecological/natural capital problems.

BNPP AM believe such companies could offer attractive growth potential given changing public policy and consumer preferences. Like most stocks however, they can experience price volatility, which is where BNP Paribas EARTH’s long/short approach can help to smooth the ride.

Hence, for investors targeting long-term return potential with positive impact, BNP Paribas EARTH could be a suitable option.
