22 July 2021 Global investment manager Nuveen has launched the Global Core Impact Bond strategy, which will offer an actively managed, multi-currency global bond portfolio that invests across global fixed income markets. The firm said the strategy followed the environmental, social and governance (ESG) investment process established in 2007 by Stephen Liberatore, Nuveen head of ESG/impact – global fixed income. The Global Core Impact Bond strategy would direct capital to “best-in-class” ESG leading issuers and securities that provided direct and measurable environmental or social impact. The strategy will be co-managed by Liberatore; Anupam Damani, head of international and emerging markets debt; and Jessica Zarzycki, co-portfolio manager for the existing ESG/impact fixed income accounts.
