AXA Singapore floats two new ESG investment-linked funds

These are managed by asset managers Mirova and Robeco.

AXA Insurance Singapore has announced the addition of two investment funds, namely the Mirova Global Sustainable Equity Fund and the RobecoSAM SDG Credit Income Fund.

Managed by global asset managers Mirova and Robeco, the funds will be available to customers under AXA’s investment-linked plan (ILP) fund offerings.

AXA is the first insurer in Singapore to be offering these funds.

AXA will be working via their distributors to raise awareness amongst customers who are interested in this type of investments. All AXA distributors will be well versed in the essentials of sustainable investing, including how ESG information is integrated, trends and misconceptions as well as performance and results using case studies through an e-learning module offered by Robeco.

The module is accredited by local and global institutes, including the CFA Institute, FPA and IBF-Singapore.
