Responsible and Sustainable Investing
We do not assess Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) Factors that may have investment ramifications, and which may have a material impact on the investment’s long-term financial performance. As a result, information on ESG Factors does not form part of our investment decision making process.
Negative and positive screening
We may, at our discretion, actively engage with our clients to understand whether they have concerns about specific activities and / or industries in order to exclude such investments on an on-going basis. In such cases, we undertake – to the extent possible – to screen target entities and /or products that promote and provide solutions that are consistent with ESG Factors and, shall aim at recommending / and or investing in such products on an on-going basis, in so far as possible.
Exclusions
We will not knowingly invest in entities involved in the following activities:
- arms manufacturing; and
- genetically modified organisms.
We will assess these types of investments on a case-by-case basis and any potential for indirect exposure is carefully considered and factored into investment selection.
Principle Adverse Impacts
We do not undertake an assessment of the Principal Adverse Impacts (“PAIs”) of our decisions on ESG Factors. PAIs are those impacts arising from a particular decision taken which we take that will eventually have a negative effect on ESG Factors.
Kindly provenance@tridenttrust.com for a full copy of our ESG Policy.
Alignment of Remuneration Policy with sustainability investments
In line with our Remuneration Policy, no variable remuneration is paid to our staff unless it is determined to be justified following a performance assessment based on quantitative (financial) as well as qualitative (non-financial) criteria.
Due to this very limited impact on the risk-profile of our clients, as well as the nature of our business, we deem that there is no risk of misalignment with the integration of the sustainability risks, if any, in our investment decision making process.
As such, we believe that our existing structures are sufficient to prevent excessive risk taking in respect of sustainability risks, if any.

An eye for the finer things
From super yachts to diamond jewelry, prestige cars to haute
couture fashion, luxury brands encompass a glittering array of
premium products synonymous with timeless elegance, exclusivity
and indulgence.
Luxury brands are renowned across the globe for their superior
quality and craftsmanship. For the owner, they convey an image
of success, status and style. They are part of a lifestyle to which
consumers all over the world aspire to belong.
In economic terms, luxury goods are the ones for which the law of
demand tends to reverse – the higher the price, the greater the
demand.
World renowned brands of distinction
The world economy is evolving. It's not just in the West that new
millionaires are making their fortunes. Wealth creation growth is
exploding in the Emerging Markets, and in Asia in particular.
Luxury brands companies are aggressively targeting this new
demographic.
Worldwide economic growth, rising income and wealth levels,
and ongoing global urbanization are all factors fuelling the
development of this prestigious sector.
Thanks to the growing global online personal luxury goods
market, these items are now accessible to a greater
number of people. The consumption of luxury brands by
middle-class buyers is yet another key driver
propelling growth in this flourishing sector.
An investment in
timeless design
The new rich of the Asia-Pacific region, which is seeing the globe's
biggest increase in millionaire households, are making their
presence felt on the economic stage.
An investment in the luxury brands sector is, therefore, not only
an investment in world-renowned names dating back generations,
but also in the immense buying power of these new wealthy
consumers.
Our Luxury Brands Fund seeks to target this rapid shift in
consumerism by carefully selecting only the most aspirational
names with superior brand power, solid fundamentals and enduring
customer loyalty.
Process
Our philosophy is to adhere to a well-defined investment process with
strong investment principals. This is essential to achieve long-term
success through all market cycles. The goal is to find the right
companies within our target sector with the most compelling valuations
that offer the highest likelihood for success.
Research Methodology
We screen the market and focus on three primary factors: valuation analysis, fundamentals as well as the macro environment.
The goal is to not only determine a company's opportunity for
success, but also gauge the industry, economy, and political atmosphere
in which it operates—a critical step often ignored by other firms. After
reviewing the data, the Investment Committee selects those companies
that present the maximum potential for investment success.
Finally, we rigorously monitor volatility at an asset and portfolio
level to ensure risk remains controlled regardless of trading
conditions.
