  • Finding the Opportunity In
    Finding the ESG disclosures: the bedrock of the opportunity sustainable finance agenda in ESG Executive summary To be successful, the development of sustainable finance in Europe needs to be grounded in access to high quality and meaningful ESG disclosures. While the quality and reliability of ESG data has improved considerably, so has the sophistication of investors and their needs for improved ESG disclosure. Investors find the most value in ESG disclosures when sustainability is embedded in the DNA of the firm as part of their competitive advantage to create long-term value. Companies that create societal value should benefit from changing policy and consumer trends, resulting in more sustainable cash flows, a lower cost of capital and higher valuations. While no standardised reporting framework can ever fully capture and reflect this. Reporting standards should, however, ensure that we move away from boilerplate disclosures and box-ticking approaches to consider the ESG risks and opportunities that are material to each company, industry and sector. While numerous standards already exist in this space, no single regulatory standard provides a comprehensive framework for companies to disclose in a way that would meet investors’ needs. Greater convergence in reporting could fill the gaps in accessing core ESG metrics that investors rely on to develop their ESG screening tools and assessment methodologies. Convergence in ESG reporting standards would also enable such data to be audited, which is becoming increasingly important to investors who base capital allocation decisions on such information. Beyond these core metrics, we need to connect ESG disclosures with real world outcomes, both adverse impacts as well as opportunities for transition.

  • Quality Driven Growth: an Enduring Combination
    Investment Focus Quality-Driven Growth: An Enduring Combination Over the past several years, market observers and participants have focused to the point of obsession on the performance and possible trajectories of growth and value stocks. In our view, however, the quiet, steady dominance of a third style makes the debate beside the point. International quality stocks have consistently outperformed their regional growth and value peers for the last two decades. Quality-driven growth investing has been an enduring combination. Done properly, we believe it has the potential to identify companies across many sectors and industries with high levels of financial productivity, lasting competitive advantages, and reinvestment opportunities for growth. Collectively, we believe companies with these characteristics can deliver a consistent pattern of performance through different investment cycles. 2 Introduction market environments, with the notable exception of very strong rising markets, which tend to favor value stocks. When comparing against Study after study has shown that investors are not very good at timing growth, the MSCI ACWI ex-USA Quality Index has outperformed the market, but the conversation around style investing shows that its counterpart Growth Index in 96% of the three-year periods when they nevertheless spend an awful lot of time trying to do it. As growth growth was underperforming and 74% of the periods when it was stocks soared over the last decade-plus, pundits asked whether the outperforming. world had permanently shifted to favor high-growth technology stocks over businesses heavy on assets in the physical world, which often fall in the value category.

  • Highlighted Etfs Highlighted Etfs | 17 December 2018
    Highlighted ETFs Highlighted ETFs | 17 December 2018 Chief Investment Office Americas, Wealth Management David Perlman, ETF Strategist Americas, [email protected] • This report highlights ETFs that, in our opinion, provide broad representation to or best target UBS CIO's global research recommendations. • In selecting ETFs, we analyze multiple factors including the underlying index methodology, performance, tracking error, liquidity and expenses, and the overall fit with research's recommendations. • Our quarterly report, A guide to investing with ETFs, published on 20 November 2018, includes factsheets for each highlighted ETF. Additions: In this month's House View, we introduced an allocation to long- term US Treasuries that is meant to protect against equity downside risk. Therefore, we are adding the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) and the Vanguard Extended Duration Treasury ETF (EDV). TLT tracks an index of US Treasury bonds with remaining maturities of 20 years or more. EDV tracks an index of US Treasury STRIPS, which are zero-coupon bonds, with maturities between 20 and 30 years. EDV is a new addition to coverage and a profile is on p. 35 of this report. We are also adding the iShares MSCI Global Impact ETF (SDG) to the list. Many of our long-term themes are around social and environmental challenges. SDG tracks an index of companies that seek to address at least one of the world's social and environmental challenges as defined by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Deletions: There were no removals since the last publication of this report. This report has been prepared by UBS Financial Services Inc.

    The Power of Alternatives Power “Lines” Phrases proven to work when discussing alternative strategies with retail clients The Power of Alternatives It’s not what you say. It’s what they hear. How do you explain complex alternative investments to retail investors? Choose your words carefully. Invesco Consulting teamed up with word specialist, Maslansky + Partners, in a year-long study that included advisor interviews, three focus group dial sessions and a national survey of 800 investors with the goal of finding the language that works when talking to clients about alternative investments. Maslansky + Partners, well known for shifting public opinion with phrases like “contract with America,” “death tax” and “energy exploration” applied its unique, scientific research to the language of alternative investments, and we have leveraged its findings in an effort to help advisors build confidence, avoid confusion and gain agreement with their clients. These words are shown for illustrative purposes only and do not constitute a recommendation of the suitability of any investment strategy for any particular investor. 1 Power Lines Phrases proven to work when discussing alternative strategies with retail clients The Power Principles Approach Language Adjustments make a difference Manage industry jargon Start the conversation by acknowledging their personal goals.
