Skip to main content

WHEB investment theme: Environmental Services

Humans are putting unsustainable pressure on natural systems of all types. These pressures in turn are creating demand for stricter pollution controls, more sustainable materials including reused and recycled materials and products and services aimed at helping communities adapt to inevitable climate change.

About UN SDGs

Sustainable Development Goals

The UN Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) were agreed by the world’s governments with the help and support of the United Nations in 2015.

The 17 goals set out aspirational and demanding targets for the world to achieve by 2030. This sends a powerful message to the investment community as to what the world’s governments consider as development priorities.

The SDGs are not used as an analysis framework within our investment process as our strategy predates them. However, we recognise that the SDGs are a useful framework for reporting. WHEB's strategy addresses seven of the SDGs directly and the remaining 10 indirectly and our quarterly reports detail portfolio alignment with the SDGs.
