The sustainability requirements provide for the inclusion of companies with high sustainability ratings, as well as the exclusion of companies involved in controversial business operations. The fund normally distributes dividends in June each year. The objective is to distribute 4% of the unit’s value at the time of the Management Company’s decision on distributions.
