The Virgin Climate Change Fund

A world class fund manager

To launch the Climate Change Fund in 2008 we teamed up with GLG, one of the most successful and sought after Fund Managers in Europe.

Typically, GLG have previously only dealt with very wealthy individuals and large institutions. With Virgin Money, their expertise is available to you from an investment of £50 a month.

An innovative investment strategy

We believe that environmentally aware companies are starting to perform better. Put simply, we think the cleaner companies are becoming best placed to give you the best returns on your investment. People are voting with their wallets, choosing greener, cleaner alternatives. Heavy polluters face increasing taxes and penalties, giving those companies adopting good environmental practices a competitive advantage. Our fund gives you a hotline to those companies who are taking an environmental lead in their industries, providing the chance to combine potentially superior investment returns with making a positive impact on the environment.

It's different to other 'green' ISAs

Some 'green' funds fail to give decent returns becaue they exclude lucrative sectors like oil and gas. The Virgin Climate Change Fund is different. It recognises that environmentally aware companies in all industries are starting to gain a competitive advantage and are making a differnce. So we first identify stocks from any industry we believe have the highest potential investment returns, then 'cherry pick' the best from an environmental point of view.
