ESG and impact funds
Not all sustainability is sustainable.
There are many environmentally friendly investments on offer today. But not all of them have the same impact. With Pando, there are two types of investment in your portfolio.
Sustainable ESG funds that invest specifically in companies with above-average performance in terms of environmental, social and governance criteria.
Particularly sustainable impact funds that allow you to set personal priorities (Climate, Environment & Biodiversity, Green Buildings & Infrastructure) and specifically support the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.
This puts Pando among the 3a providers with the strictest sustainability criteria.

Figures rather than empty words
We don’t just claim to be sustainable, we prove it. You can see precisely in the app what positive impact your investment has already achieved.
Find out how much CO2 you have avoided.
