Investment Policy Amendments to Select Funds

The Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (“SFDR”), introduced by the European Union, aims to improve transparency in terms of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) disclosures to help investors make informed decisions when they seek to invest in financial products that support sustainability. The SFDR mandates asset managers to classify their funds under Article 6, 8 or 9 based on ESG and other sustainable characteristics incorporated into those funds.

As of 5 September 2023 (the “Effective Date”) a subset of the funds (“Funds”) in the State Street Liquidity PLC fund range will amend their investment policy to introduce environmental and social characteristics into the investment process and as a result the Funds will be reclassified from Article 6 to Article 8 under SFDR. The impacted Funds are:

  • State Street EUR Liquidity LVNAV Fund
  • State Street GBP Liquidity LVNAV Fund
  • State Street USD Liquidity LVNAV Fund
  • State Street EUR Liquidity Standard VNAV Fund
  • State Street GBP Liquidity Standard VNAV Fund
  • State Street USD Liquidity Standard VNAV Fund
