Climate, sustainability, and responsible resource management are shaping the economy of the future, and an increasing number of investors want to be part of this journey. DNB Fund Future Waves makes it possible to invest in companies that contribute positively to the environment and society. The fund focuses on four driving forces: the ocean, climate, green technology, and social development. This includes everything from offshore wind and sustainable food production to circular economy and digital health services, areas where both demand and the pace of innovation are growing rapidly.
Several of the companies in the fund operate in sectors with high expected growth. The value of the ocean-based economy is expected to exceed $3 trillion by 2030, and the capacity of offshore wind power could quadruple in the same period. Sectors such as electrification, water management, and health innovation are also contributing to meeting global needs and providing attractive investment opportunities. With DNB Fund Future Waves, you gain access to companies that both make a difference and have the potential for solid returns over time.
The actively managed equity fund has an active share of 80% and typically invests in between 45 to 75 companies from a broad range of subsectors where the fund seeks companies with reasonable valuations and attractive medium to long-term growth prospects.
The stock selection is based on an initial screening with DNB's in-house developed ESG Lab, an analysis tool that assesses companies' environmental and social impact, followed by a thorough bottom-up approach within four thematic areas, where only companies with a clear sustainability profile and attractive valuation are included in the portfolio.
