What is an industry built for the long term?

Superannuation is a long-term investment. The investment manager analyses structural changes in the environment, society and the economy (like global decarbonisation and digital transformation) and uses thematic investing to increase exposure to the long-term growth opportunities driven by these megatrends.

FGIM considers industries built for the long term as industries that are consistent with a more sustainable future. This includes investments that pass negative screens (which are designed to exclude investment in industries believed to carry unacceptable risks to your retirement savings and future) and/or support sustainable development outcomes – like inclusive access to renewable energy and affordable housing, gender equality, and a healthy environment.
