Two approaches to sustainable Investing with UBS: You can invest sustainably with both actively and passively managed funds.

 

Actively managed Vitainvest investment funds

Actively managed funds mainly focus on their own forward-looking data and valuations. Fund managers also actively influence companies and work directly toward making improvements, including to the sustainability profile.

Passively managed Vitainvest investment funds

With passively managed funds, the investor relies mainly on what has been achieved in the past. With these funds, index providers focus primarily on historical and for the most part publicly accessible data (incl. sustainability data) and therefore tend to be focused toward the past.
