COIF Charities Investment Fund

Please note, from 20 November 2023 the prices shown are daily. 
Capital at risk. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. The value of investments and the income derived from them may fall as well as rise. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested and may lose money.

The fund aims to provide a total return (growth in capital and income) over the long term (defined as five years) of UK CPI + 5% per annum, before costs and charges.

Sustainability approach

We believe that the primary role of sustainable investment is to drive positive change and this is best achieved by pushing companies to do more to address the major challenges facing us today.

We aim to manage our clients’ investments in a way that aligns with their values and to do this we consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors in our listed equity investment process and go beyond the boundaries of traditional investor engagement to drive change. The FCA has introduced sustainable investment labels to help investors find products that have a specific sustainability goal. This product does not have a UK sustainable investment label because it does not have a sustainability goal.

Investment approach

An actively managed, diversified multi-asset fund which has an emphasis on equities (between 50% and 85%) but will also invest in other asset classes, which may include property, bonds, cash and alternative asset classes (e.g., infrastructure assets, commodities, private equity, etc.).

Who can invest?

Any charitable organisation in England and Wales, and any appropriate body in Scotland and Northern Ireland, that meets the definition of a charity as set out in Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and is recognised by HMRC as a charity for tax purposes may normally invest in the fund. This includes registered charities, exempt charities as well as charities not registered, such as some schools and academies.
