Manulife Investment Management launches Global Energy Transition Fund

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 9  -- Manulife Investment Management (M) Bhd has launched Manulife Global Energy Transition Fund, which aimed to support the move towards a carbon neutral economy and mitigate the impact of climate change. 

Manulife Investment Management said the fund would be established as a wholesale feeder fund that aimed to provide capital appreciation by investing at least 95 per cent of the fund’s net asset value (NAV) in BNP Paribas Funds Energy Transition and the remaining NAV in liquid assets. 

“The target fund is managed by BNP Paribas Asset Management Luxembourg, which invests in three key areas of the global energy transition story, namely decarbonisation, digitalisation and decentralisation, all of which present diverse investment opportunities in the US$115 trillion (US$1=RM4.22) transition of the global energy system,” it said in a statement today.

The asset manager said Manulife Global Energy Transition Fund is exclusively distributed to its Standard Chartered Bank Malaysia clients. 

“The fund is suitable for sophisticated investors who are willing to accept higher market risks and can tolerate volatility, wish to seek capital appreciation and investment exposure in global equity markets with a focus on companies that engage in the energy transition,” it added.
