To achieve this, the management team uses an investment process structured around a triple approach: extra-financial analysis on environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria combined with a "bottom-up" analysis for securities selection and a "top-down" analysis for portfolio optimisation. The non-financial analysis results in an ESG rating for each issuer on a scale ranging from A (highest rating) to G (lowest rating). At least 90% of securities in the portfolio have an ESG rating. ESG criteria are considered through several approaches: "rating improvement" approach (the average ESG rating of the portfolio must be higher than that of the investment universe after eliminating at least 20% of the lowest-rated securities), regulatory by excluding certain issuers: exclusion of issuers rated F and G on purchase, legal exclusions on controversial weapons, exclusion of companies that seriously and repeatedly contravene one or more of the ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact and sectoral exclusions on coal and tobacco.

At any time, the portfolio consists of at least 20% of securities over two years of age. The sensitivity range is 0 to 2.

For information purposes, the management team may notably use securities with ratings as described below.
