Green tech is not only ecologically necessary but also economically attractive.

Investment Strategy
Based on our multi-factor model, we select the best 25 stocks from the Green Tech investment universe, which comprises around 300 companies, every six months. The semi-annual rebalancing takes place at the beginning of May and at the beginning of November. The weighting of the factors is as follows:
On May 1 and November 1, 25 stocks are selected based on a multi-factor model:
- 40% Momentum
- 40% Value
- 20% Quality
This approach is fact-based, systematic, and ensures that the portfolio is built on clearly measurable criteria.
We constantly analyse the absolute and relative momentum of our investments. If the defined momentum criteria are no longer met, we consistently sell the shares. The proceeds from the sales are not immediately reinvested, however, but held in liquidity until the next rebalancing. With this proven approach, we demonstrably reduce the setback risk.
