Please refer to our global public website Investing in a sustainable future - HSBC Global Private Banking for further information about our ESG and sustainable investing approach and how we embed ESG factors in a diversified portfolio. Please note in the UK, the Financial Conduct Authority has established a sustainable investment labelling and disclosure regime (UK SDR) for UK based funds under which funds may apply one of four sustainability labels if they meet certain strict criteria: Sustainability Focus, Sustainability Improvers, Sustainability Impact and Sustainability Mixed Goals. Further information can be found in FCA’s website https://www.fca.org.uk/consumers/sustainable-investment-labels-greenwashing

Your organisation’s needs are unique. That is why our expert charity team works closely with your trustees and finance teams to provide a tailored range of solutions and support.
