One key message for investors from this event is to know what you can control. Asset allocation is one factor you can control, and Eugene Botha, deputy chief investment officer, shares with us how to strategically allocate investments for the future. Momentum Investments also shows us the growing importance of responsible investing and how the company integrates responsible investing into portfolios. Kudzayi Ziso points out that environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors are integral to the investment process.
With a focus on six of the sustainable development goals (SDG), responsible investing is a key area of focus for Momentum Investments and sustainability is becoming an element in defining the properties of asset classes.
