WS Guinness Sustainable Energy Fund

The WS Guinness Sustainable Energy strategy is managed for capital growth and invests in companies involved in the generation, storage, efficiency and consumption of sustainable energy sources (such as solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, biofuels and biomass).

Overview

The Guinness Sustainable Energy strategy is managed for capital growth and invests in companies involved in the generation, storage, efficiency and consumption of sustainable energy sources (such as solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, biofuels and biomass).

We believe that over the next twenty years the sustainable energy sector will benefit from the combined effects of:

  • Demand growth - The electrification of transportation and improved energy storage economics brings attractive long-term sustainable energy demand growth
  • Improving Economics - Sustainable energy sources have become cost competitive with power from fossil fuels; we expect the cost of supply to continue to fall
  • Public & Private Support - Both governments and companies are pursuing sustainable energy in order to achieve mandated carbon targets or to improve public perception
  • Low current exposure - Poor profitability and need for subsidies has kept the weight of sustainable energy in global indices and broad global equity funds at a low level

Sustainability Theme - The sustainable energy sector offers ‘green’ credentials that some investors are targeting to help facilitate global de-carbonisation and to reduce carbon intensity of their portfolios

Investment Team

How to Invest in Guinness Global Investors

Investment Case

The Guinness Sustainable Energy strategy is positioned to benefit from the many opportunities associated with the sustainable energy transition. We identify four sub-sectors and have assembled a proprietary investment universe of around 200 companies with critical mass that are most directly exposed to them:

  • Displacement: displacement or more efficient usage of hydrocarbon-based energy
  • Electrification: the switching of hydrocarbon-based fuel demand towards electricity, especially for electric vehicles
  • Installation: the manufacture of equipment for the generation and consumption of sustainable energy
  • Generation: the production of sustainable energy, either pureplay companies or those transitioning from hydrocarbon-based fuels

We conduct rigorous independent analysis of the fundamental drivers of sustainable energy markets: energy commodity prices; sustainable energy technology research and development; installation and equipment prices; political and economic support for the sector; government and private sector demand. This allows us to form a top-down view, which in turn informs our industry energy sub-sector allocation.

The team operates a disciplined stock screening process. We review our investment universe each week to identify companies which look attractive on return on investment, valuation, earnings sentiment and price momentum. We also use sub-sector specific screens. Ideas generated by screening are then subjected to due diligence centred around detailed financial modelling.

The portfolio comprises around 30 equally weighted positions. This portfolio construction is designed to create a balance between maintaining fund concentration and managing stock-specific risk, and there is no reference to the benchmark. The portfolio is liquid, with 90% of the Fund normally invested in companies with a market capitalisation over US $500 million.

Why invest in the WS Guinness Sustainable Energy Fund?

 

 

Concentrated Exposure

The Guinness Sustainable Energy strategy aims to deliver investment returns via equal weighted, concentrated exposure to 30 sustainable energy companies; available in a daily traded UCITS structure.
 

Specialist Team

The Guinness Energy Team has 20 years of experience of running energy investment strategies in a consistent manner and providing insight for investors into the energy markets.
 

Investment Process

The Fund is run using a Top Down and Bottom Up investment process based on an internally created Universe of 179 Sustainable Energy companies with detailed valuation models.
 

Valuation Opportunity

The fund selects the most attractive equities in the Universe and it displays growth together with higher return on capital, lower valuation multiple and stronger balance sheets than the MSCI World Index.
 

Sustainability Theme

The Guinness Sustainable Energy Strategy offers ‘green’ credentials that some investors might use to help facilitate.

 

Investment process

We conduct rigorous independent analysis of the fundamental drivers of sustainable energy markets: energy commodity prices; sustainable energy technology research and development; installation and equipment prices; political and economic support for the sector; government and private sector demand. This allows us to analyse likely demand for sustainable energy equipment and services and creates our top-down view, which in turn informs our industry energy sub-sector allocation. Analysis of the key drivers of growth, scarcity, barriers to entry and economics informs our weighting to our internally generated Sustainable Energy subsectors.

Stock Screening

Bottom-up stock screening

The team operates a disciplined stock screening process. We review a universe of around 179 sustainable energy stocks each week to identify companies which look attractive on their return on investment, valuation, earnings sentiment and price momentum. Other sub-sector specific screens are also employed to generate ideas.
 

Stock due diligence

Stock ideas are taken from our screens. We then conduct due diligence to establish whether we have conviction to include the stock in our portfolio. The due diligence centres around detailed financial modelling.

 

Portfolio construction

 

 

Equally-weighted portfolio

The portfolio comprises around 30 equally-weighted positions. Our equally-weighted portfolio construction is designed to create a balance between maintaining fund concentration and managing stock-specific risk. It also imposes a structural sell discipline: an existing position must be sold to purchase a new holding.
 

Sector weights

There is no benchmark adherence in the Fund’s sub-sector weights.

Portfolio Risk Controls

 

Stock specific risk

Stock specific risk in the sustainable energy sector tends to be higher than the broader market. By constructing the fund of 30 equally weighted positions, we avoid significant exposure to any one individual stock.
 

Liquidity

The portfolio is liquid, with 90% of the Fund normally invested in companies with a market capitalisation over US $500 million.
 

Currency

The Fund is not hedged from a currency perspective.

How to Invest in Guinness Global Investors

 

WS Guinness Sustainable Energy Fund is an equity fund. Investors should be willing and able to assume the risks of equity investing. The Fund invests only in companies involved in the sustainable energy sector; it is therefore susceptible to the performance of that one sector, and can be volatile. The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency movement, you may not get back the amount originally invested. Further details on the risk factors are included in the Fund’s documentation, available on our website.

Simulated past performance: Performance prior to the launch date of the Y class of the Fund (16.02.2018) is a composite simulation for Y class performance being based on the actual performance of the Fund's E class which has an OCF of 1.24%. Source: FE fundinfo. Investors should note that fees and expenses are charged to the capital of the Fund. This reduces the return on your investment by an amount equivalent to the Ongoing Charges Figure (OCF). The current OCF for the share class used for the fund performance returns is 0.67%. Returns for share classes with a different OCF will vary accordingly. Transaction costs also apply and are incurred when a fund buys or sells holdings. The performance returns do not reflect any initial charge; any such charge will also reduce the return. Graph is in USD.
