Chief executive of BNPP AMAU, David Grybas, said: “The demand for quality sustainable, ethical and impact investment products has continued to grow in Australia and New Zealand.
“BNPP AMAU is thrilled to offer additional capabilities that meet investor demand for sustainable investment solutions, and in the case of the China Equity Trust, provide investors with exposure to a key driver of global economic growth.”
