Fund EcoMarket is a free to use database of information on all regulated, retail, onshore funds that focus on sustainable, responsible, ethical and ESG issues – as well as a number of additional FCA regulated funds and a small number of portfolio service providers. (See ‘Product Type’ filter).
We aim to bring together extensive fund information so that investor aims can be matched to fund options as closely as possible.
Our database is designed to support UK financial services professionals but open to everyone.
We do this because we believe it is important to change how people invest.
We believe everyone should pay careful attention to environmental and social issues when making investment decisions both because it matters what is happening to the planet and because it makes sound financial sense to do so.
You can use Fund EcoMarket in a number of different ways.
You can search by fund name, click on logos to see funds from a specific fund manager – or use one or more filter options to generate a list of funds.
Many people chose to use the (separate) SRI Stylefinder (fact find) questionnaire to find their ‘best fit’ (one, two or three) ‘styles’ of sustainable, responsible and ethical fund .
This can help you to focus in on the options that are most likely to be of interest to your client.
You can then use the additional filters to refine your search.
Once you have generated a list of funds you can tick the options you are most interested in a create a report to save your findings (important for your audit trail). This information should then be matched with other standard financial information available from other information providers.
This site should not be viewed as offering any form of advice. There is a lot of information about investment that we do not offer on this site. We are not regulated and cannot offer advice.
SRI Styles are our own proprietary classifications or labelling system for sustainable, responsible, ethical and ESG funds.
We group funds into ‘SRI Styles’ to make their similarities and differences easier to recognise and understand.
SRI Styles describe the fund options that are available today. They aim to highlight a combination of the different issues funds focus on eg sustainability, environmental, social, ethical, faith and the different approaches different funds apply to these issues – eg themed, tilt, ESG, limited.
By doing this we hope to help financial advisers match client aims to potentially appropriate fund options more easily (and make it easier to see when a fund is likely to be entirely inappropriate from a sustainability/ESG perspective!).
For funds that have supplied us with information we use the information they provide to decide label a fund.
For managers who have not (or not yet) supplied us with information we use online information.
See our SRI Styles Directory for further information.
For simplicity a fund can only be in one SRI Style, however in practice there is lots of crossover between the styles as well as significant variation between funds in each style.
For example:
In most situations we recommend you use additional filters to make fund selection more ‘bespoke’ – better matched to clients’ personal aims.
Yes. Sometimes. SRI Styles can and do change over time because this area is changing all the time.
Our SRI Styles are intended to help guide users. They are our opinion of funds. They should not be seen as advice or any form of recommendation. See our ‘SRI Styles Directory’ for further information on the Styles.
