Flagship fund is renamed to"I-AM GreenStars Opportunities”

Frankfurt am Main, 4 April 2022: The Austrian Impact Asset Management ("I-AM") has renamed its flagship fund "C-QUADRAT GreenStars ESG" to "I-AM GreenStars Opportunities" as of 1 April 2022. With the rebranding of the fund, which was launched in 2013 and currently comprises assets under management of around 260 million euros, the company is now also repositioning itself at the product level. The former C-QUADRAT Asset Management GmbH has been operating under the name Impact Asset Management since mid-2021. With this step, the consistent focus on sustainable fund products will communicated more intensively to external stakeholders.

"The successful track record of I-AM GreenStars Opportunities shows the potential that can be realised with a clear focus on sustainability. Our approach is based on seizing market opportunities while consistently taking sustainability criteria into account. The new name "I-AM GreenStars Opportunities" excellently reflects the fund's investment strategy. For investors, the fund's orientation is thus already made clear in its name," says Daniel Feix, Managing Director and Head of Portfolio Management at I-AM.

I-AM GreenStars Opportunities has received a two-star FNG-Label and MSCI ESG Research's highest sustainability rating of AAA. In addition, the fund received five stars by Morningstar for its outstanding performance. Since the launch of the product, an annual return of 7.19% has been achieved (as of 31.03.22 / All data refer to share class S (VTA)).

As part of the rebranding of Impact Asset Management, further funds of the company are adopted into the new product family "I-AM".
