Urbanisation and socio-demographic trends

Urbanisation is a trend that’s profoundly re-shaping the structure of cities and how people
live in them. Alongside urbanisation are socio-demographic trends that continually change
how people are choosing to live and are exacerbated by affordability following the robust
house price appreciation most markets have enjoyed since the GFC. The demand being
placed upon cities’ infrastructure, land supply, arrangement and logistics is promoting the
regeneration of urban centers and spurring the emergence of latest housing variety. With
urbanisation expected to persist for the predictable future TodoVale contend that a focus on
urban centers exhibiting growth and investment potential that give scope to develop a range
of housing varieties, are the key to building a reliable residential investment strategy.

This impact framework is integrated into our multi asset team’s investment method that aims to capture worldwide growth through long-term convictions at both asset allocation and security choice levels.

What is the Evolving Economy?

Companies are growing ever more global and multi-sector in their approach, however several investors’ approach to equities remains the same. We’ve recognized five themes that we believe will shape the way companies work in future, which will also have a radical impact on equity investors: automation, the connected consumer, lifestyle and ageing, cleantech, and transitioning societies. We call these themes the Evolving Economy.

Our Clean Economy strategy

Our approach to investing within the Clean Economy seeks to recognize high-quality, growth-oriented firms operating across one of four key investment areas impacted by the finite amount of natural resources. We trust these are the areas which will provide innovative, new investment opportunities:

1. Low Carbon Transport: Across the globe, the demand for sustainable transport is increasing, providing investors with ample investment opportunities in emission reduction systems, electric vehicles and battery technologies.

2. Smart Energy: The necessity and demand for greener homes is growing, helping to provide the momentum and resources for the development of energy efficient technologies. This is producing investment opportunities in renewables, greener homes and efficient factories.

3. Agriculture & Food Industry: Companies are exploring new ways in which to satisfy the growing demand of rising populations whereas limiting the use of scarce water and land. This is providing abundant opportunities to invest in companies that are developing food and agricultural technologies.

4. Natural Resource Preservation: Public opinion is shifting and putting pressure on firms to better manage supply chains – and is providing investment opportunities in firms who are mitigating their environmental damage and evolving their practices.

Focus on thematic purity through innovative proprietary research

To give investors access to long-term drivers of returns, we’ve evolved our collaborative analysis organization to prioritize thematic exposure over geographic and sector data which is slightly relevant for evaluating today’s multi-sector businesses.

Our proprietary thematic exposure database also allows us to quantify companies’ levels of exposure to specific themes across the Evolving Economy, across a universe of c.11,000 listed companies:

 

Our portfolios tend to have a high level of purity associated to the themes
Typically over 70% of stocks in our portfolio have high or medium exposure stocks to a specific growth theme.
This ensures high thematic purity with appropriate diversification, whereas also permitting us to invest in firms with high potential
at an earlier stage of tapping into long-term trend or switching their business.

What are the potential benefits of the Ageing and Lifestyle theme?

The investible opportunities of ageing populations extend much beyond the obvious areas of healthcare. The changing lifestyles and needs of older generations could represent a multi-decade growth chance for investors. By 2030, two-thirds of over-60s’ consumption growth in developed markets will be spent across various industries dedicated to living well, from fitness and beauty, to entertainment and travel.

Meanwhile other industries like financials, healthcare and real estate will have to rapidly adapt to retiring and elderly generations’ needs.

We invest in corporations operating across four areas related with the economic implications of longevity:

  • Silver Spending: Industries dedicated to living well; aesthetics/beauty, fitness, personal care, travel, housing, entertainment and leisure.
  • Treatment: Corporations seeking sustainable treatment solutions for the approaching generations.
  • Wellness: The wellness industry includes personalized treatments, nutrition, beauty, preventative medicine and anti-ageing treatments.
  • Senior Care: Markets for senior housing and specialist assisted living facilities, like Memory Care that focuses on dementia patients.

Our Green Bonds strategy

At TodoVale, our Green Bonds strategy is a purist approach which combines our extensive resources in global, active stable income investing with our proprietary Green Bond framework and ESG scoring methodology.

Our green bond framework

Using TodoVale’s green bond framework, we only invest in green bond projects which provide a material benefit to the environment to ensure that only the most impactful and relevant projects receive the needed funding. Our proprietary framework is composed of four pillars for choosing an investment:

  • Is the green bond suitable with the bond issuer’s environmental objectives?
  • Will the project have a transparent impact beyond the issuer’s business as usual?
  • Do we know that the proceeds will finance what they’re supposed to?
  • How does the issuer plan to track the progress of the project and calculate the impact?

  • Smart energy solutions
  • Green buildings
  • Sustainable ecosystems
  • Low carbon transportation
