THE TOP SUSTAINABLE MUTUAL FUNDS
SPECIAL REPORT: THE TOP SUSTAINABLE MUTUAL FUNDS
Barron's selected the 203 U.S. large-company, actively managed funds with the most sustainable portfolios, and ranked them by one-year returns. Of the 203, 37% or 76 funds beat the Standard & Poor's 500 index's 18.6% return in the year ended Sept. 30. Green denotes funds with a sustainable mandate--ESG-focused, socially responsible, or religious. The others come by their sustainable portfolios via their stock-picking process. The ranking was based on data provided by independent research firms Morningstar and Sustainalytics.
