Intentional Thematic Equity Strategies

Through years of research and development,  including the design, testing, and live performance tracking of a broad set of UN SDG portfolios,  we gained a clear understanding of where intentionality translates most effectively into investable opportunities in public markets.

Our findings made it clear that while every systemic challenge matters, only some can be meaningfully expressed through publicly listed equities that can be organized into strategically diversified portfolios designed to deliver durable returns. 

Our framework organizes the investable universe into seven thematic strategies, each focused on a core system essential to a resilient, inclusive, sustainable, and economically durable society. Each portfolio is constructed with 20–40 U.S.-listed equities and provides multi-cap exposure across small, mid, large, and mega-cap companies.

At the center of this framework is our Fix It Strategy, a diversified portfolio that combines the highest-conviction companies from across all seven themes. While each strategy offers targeted thematic exposure, they are built with strategic diversification to ensure resilience across different market environments.

We currently manage select thematic strategies as live models, with the full suite of strategies developed and ready to be activated as our platform expands. This ensures clients can benefit immediately from our most advanced research while maintaining a clear path to broader offerings.
