Sustainable World Direct

A more direct and diversified approach to sustainable investing

For your clients with £500,000 or more to invest, we work alongside you to manage a diversified sustainable portfolio. Our portfolios cover a broad range of asset classes, sectors, geographies and impact themes, to support long-term financial returns and positive impact.

Sustainable World Direct is designed for your clients who want greater visibility of how their wealth is invested, but don’t require a fully bespoke solution.

We actively manage your client’s portfolio, while you remain responsible for assessing suitability, providing financial advice and overseeing how the portfolio supports their wider financial plans.

how we work with you

Direct sustainable portfolio management, built around your advice

Our Sustainable World Direct service offers a diversified, impact-led investment solution that aligns with your clients’ financial goals and risk profile, while actively contributing to a range of impact outcomes for people and planet. This is all delivered through an ongoing partnership with our team dedicated to adviser support.

Adviser support, end-to-end

We provide the expertise and resources to support your client conversations at every stage of the relationship. Our team works with you from your early client proposals, to ad hoc questions, through to formal annual portfolio reviews. Together, we help you deliver a more engaging and meaningful sustainable investment experience.

Diversified sustainable portfolios

Built from a broad investment universe, SWD provides your clients with diversified exposure across asset classes, sectors, geographies, and impact themes, with the aim of delivering long-term financial returns alongside positive impact. Our interactive sustainability questionnaire helps you explore what matters most to your clients and highlight their sustainability preferences. SWD is available in three risk levels, and in GIA, ISA and SIPPs wrappers.

How do you work with financial advisers on Sustainable World Direct portfolios?

For your clients with £500,000 or more to invest, we work alongside you to manage a diversified, sustainable portfolio in line with their investment mandate, risk profile, financial objectives, and the change they wish to see in the world.

This is a collaborative partnership designed to support you with access to our impact investment specialists, transparent investment and impact reporting, and educational resources. Our aim is to strengthen the service you provide, helping your clients invest their capital in a way that’s both impact- and performance driven.

What’s the minimum investment for this service?

For Sustainable World Direct, your client must have a minimum of £500,000 to invest. If your client has less than this, they can still access Tribe portfolios through our Sustainable Impact Model Portfolio Service (SIMPS). For clients with £3 million or more to invest, who have more specific investment objectives and impact ambitions, our Bespoke Wealth Management service offers a tailored portfolio and a more personalised investment and service experience.

Why work with Tribe – beyond the investment portfolios?

As an adviser working with Tribe, we’ll help you engage and educate your clients throughout their investment journey. You’ll have a dedicated relationship with our team, backed by our impact investment specialists, giving you the support, tools, insights and confidence to make sustainable investing both meaningful and straightforward for you and your clients.

Here’s what you can expect:

An interactive sustainability questionnaire to help with your suitability conversations and uncover the causes your client cares about most
Supporting proposal materials to help guide your initial conversations with your client
Monthly market reviews, with insights drawn directly from your clients’ portfolios
Quarterly updates from our Chief Impact Investment Officer and the wider Impact Investment Team
Quarterly investment and impact reporting to add to your ongoing client conversations
An annual review pack to help communicate portfolio performance and sustainability outcomes
Regular thought leadership covering market trends, sustainability developments and impact themes
Access to MyTribe, our online portal and app, where you and your clients can securely view valuations, documents and portfolio information
Access to our investment and impact specialists to support adviser-led client meetings where appropriate, including investment proposal and portfolio review meetings

Together, these resources help strengthen the service you provide, making it easier to demonstrate both how your clients’ portfolios are performing and the positive change their investments are helping to support.

How will we see the impact of my client’s investments?

Each quarter, you’ll receive a formal valuation report that shows both the financial and impact performance of your clients’ portfolios, helping you demonstrate how their assets contribute to the issues that matter most to them.

You’ll also have access to MyTribe, our secure online portal and app, where you and your clients can view portfolio holdings, valuations, reporting and key documents in one place.

Once a year, we provide materials for your annual portfolio reviews, offering a deeper look at your clients’ portfolios, including financial performance and the positive impact their investments are working to achieve.

Our annual Sustainability Report also shows how your client’s assets contribute to Tribe’s wider impact, highlighting the environmental and social progress we’re making together across all assets under management.

What type of investments could be in my client’s portfolios?

Your client’s portfolio is aligned to their agreed risk profile and investment objectives, diversified across a range of asset classes, sectors, geographies and impact themes.

On their behalf, we invest in a broad range of investments, including direct equities, exchange traded funds (ETFs), investment trusts, gilts and carefully selected third-party funds. Each investment is chosen for its potential to deliver long-term financial returns while contributing to positive environmental and social outcomes.

Their portfolio might include:

A wildlife conservation bond helping to protect endangered black rhino populations while supporting local communities in South Africa.
An equity investment in climate infrastructure, such as advanced drainage systems reducing flood risk in US cities.
A microfinance fund supporting small-scale entrepreneurs in emerging economies to help lift themselves out of poverty.

These are just a few examples. Every investment is carefully selected through our twin-lens approach, considering both its financial merit and the positive contribution it can make to creating a more sustainable world.

How do I know which Tribe service is right for my client?

We offer three sustainable investment solutions to meet different client needs, depending on the size of their portfolio, the level of personalisation they’re looking for, and the service they require.

Sustainable Impact Model Portfolio Service (SIMPS) is designed for clients looking for a straightforward way to invest sustainably. With no minimum investment (subject to platform minimums), it offers six risk-rated model portfolios available across a wide range of platforms and wrappers.

Sustainable World Direct (SWD) is designed for clients investing £500,000 or more who want a direct and more diversified sustainable investment experience. Their portfolios are built using a broad investment universe, including direct equities, ETFs, investment trusts, gilts and third-party funds, and come with enhanced investment and impact reporting, while you remain at the centre of the client relationship.

Bespoke Wealth Management is designed for clients investing £3 million or more who have more complex investment needs or specific impact ambitions. We work alongside you to build a tailored portfolio aligned with your client’s financial objectives and sustainability priorities, supported by a highly personalised impact investment management experience.

Subject to FCA approval, we have a multi-asset fund launching soon; more details to come.

If you’re unsure which solution is most appropriate, our team would be happy to discuss your client’s needs and help you understand the features of each service so you can determine what may be suitable for your client.
