Saturna Sustainable Funds Sustainability and Stewardship Report 2024

We are navigating an increasingly intricate environment as the investment landscape shifts dramatically. The climate crisis is causing devastating floods, fires, and storms, resulting in significant human suffering, loss of life, and economic damage on a global scale. Concurrently, investors must also contend with a rapidly evolving regulatory and political landscape, compounded by the perpetual challenge of navigating economic cycles.

We passionately believe that we serve our clients in the best possible way by incorporating a wider set of material information when choosing investments. This includes our views on the economy, the financial strength of a company, and when the Federal Reserve will move on interest rates. Alongside those perspectives, it also includes data about carbon emissions, gender equality, and water usage. The full picture embraces the risks posed by climate change and the opportunities lost by a workforce not performing up to its full potential.
