CAMAS, Wash., Aug. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Fisher Investments' Institutional US All Cap ESG and Emerging Markets Responsible Equity ex-Fossil Fuels strategies received the "Towards Sustainability" label from Febelfin, the Belgian financial sector federation. The 'Towards Sustainability' label aims to help investors find socially responsible and sustainable investment options by recognizing financial products that meet strict environmental, social and governance (ESG) guidelines.

"Responsible investing is a priority for many Fisher Investments clients and we continue to expand our sustainable investment strategy portfolio to meet client interest," said Fisher Investments' Senior Executive Vice President of Institutional, Justin Arbuckle. He added, "Our unique top-down investment process—emphasizing macro decisions at the country and sector level before selecting individual stocks—lends itself well to ESG integration since the most prevalent ESG investment considerations are often macro in nature."

Fisher Investments CEO Damian Ornani also commented, "We're honored to be recognized by Febelfin, which confirms our commitment to develop socially responsible investment strategies that meet our clients' financial goals and sustainability preferences. Fisher Investments is proud to collaborate with institutional clients, consultants and other partners as we continue developing our ESG capabilities and offerings."

The 'Towards Sustainability' recognition follows other acknowledgements of Fisher Investments' commitment to ESG investment strategies. To learn more about Fisher Investments Institutional Group's approach to ESG investing, please visit: https://institutional.fisherinvestments.com/en-us.
