ALIGNING YOUR WEALTH WITH
YOUR WORLDVIEW
WHAT ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES YOU’D LIKE TO ADDRESS WITH YOUR INVESTMENTS?
WHAT KIND OF LEGACY DOES YOUR FAMILY WANT TO LEAVE?
WHAT KIND OF LEGACY DOES YOUR FAMILY WANT TO LEAVE?
Personal questions like these have become more frequent in recent conversations with our clients. This is particularly relevant for younger generations. We know that you may be looking for ways to align your wealth with your worldview, and you need a team that can help you execute this vision effectively.
A WORLD FILLED WITH ROADBLOCKS AND GREENWASHING
At Baseline, we have built a business with the necessary resources and expertise to match. We know that many of our competitors are not fully aligned with the concept of impact investing, or simply do not know how to do it effectively. Many investors shy away from impact investing, citing numerous obstacles, including a lack of suitable investment opportunities, an inability to screen such investments, or a fear of inadequate financial returns. Others are concerned that some of the claims made for sustainable investments do not live up to close examination. Such perceptions may deter you from investing. We have found, however, that these perceptions are often wide of the mark, as there are now deals available in all industries, of every structure, and at every stage to enable investors to apply their capital in ways that not only meet their financial needs but also align with their values and worldview.
BLENDING PROFITS AND PURPOSE: GENERATING COMPETITIVE MARKET RETURNS
Despite claims to the contrary, historical performance data now firmly shows that ESG (environmental, social and governance) strategies can deliver strong, even better, performance than traditional investing strategies. In 2020, for instance, all major MSCI global ESG indexes outperformed the MSCI that do not take ESG into consideration.
We expect that sustainability will be the key to outperforming the markets in the coming years. This is why all our portfolios are rooted in sustainability.
Rapid transformation in key economic sectors such as energy and food offers major opportunities for long-term investors. Committing funds to the future sector leaders of the global economy is not only a smart investment decision, it can also help solve some of society’s biggest challenges.
PUTTING YOUR IMPACT GOALS INTO ACTION
At Baseline, we craft tailor-made solutions to reflect your values, while meeting your financial expectations. Our deep experience in impact investing enables us to help you invest with purpose.
We use a repeatable process to help you define your desired impact goals and themes, as well as the exclusions you want to align your portfolio with your norms and values.
We then select a benchmark to track our returns for performance reviews, analyse the allocation, risk and return of an investment or portfolio, and clarify profitability expectations, risk parameters, and other performance criteria.
We will then construct a customized portfolio for you with a multi-asset class approach, investing across both public and private markets globally.
In order to source the most compelling opportunities around the globe, we leverage our extensive networks across various impact communities to access unique and often hard to find private investment opportunities.
