Janus Henderson Group plc (NYSE/ASX: JHG) today announced the
launch of five actively managed sustainable exchange-traded funds
(ETFs) for investors in the U.S.
Janus Henderson’s Sustainable ETF Solutions include three equity
and two fixed income ETFs, including:
- U.S. Sustainable Equity ETF (SSPX),
- International Sustainable Equity ETF (SXUS),
- Net Zero Transition Resources ETF (JZRO),
- Sustainable Corporate Bond ETF (SCRD), and
- Sustainable & Impact Core Bond ETF (JIB).
Actively managed by four established teams across three
continents, the new ETFs draw on the firm’s 30-year heritage of
sustainable investing and commitment to providing differentiated
ETF solutions. This launch is a part of Janus Henderson’s
significant efforts over the last two years to more centrally
engage in a wide range of environmental, social and governance
(ESG) related efforts within the firm’s investment teams and
client-facing professionals, as well as from a corporate
perspective, and to grow its offering of actively managed ETFs.
The Portfolio Managers for the funds include Hamish
Chamberlayne, CFA; Aaron Scully, CFA; Daniel Sullivan; Darko
Kuzmanovic; Tal Lomnitzer, CFA; Tim Gerrard; Michael Keough; Brad
Smith; Greg Wilensky, CFA; and Nick Childs, CFA.
“The launch of this comprehensive suite of sustainable ETFs is
designed to showcase Janus Henderson’s intention to help investors
embrace sustainability in an authentic way, without sacrificing a
commitment to robust investment results. These ETFs also represent
the intersection of two very significant growth opportunities for
Janus Henderson, our ETF franchise, and the surge in client demand
for robust ESG solutions,” said Nick Cherney, Head of Exchange
Traded Products of Janus Henderson.
Investors are increasingly considering how their route to
achieving financial goals impacts the world around them. Janus
Henderson’s Sustainable ETF Solutions seek to deliver strong,
risk-adjusted returns by identifying companies supportive of
positive ESG change.
“To us, sustainability is a logical and critical component of a
robust investment process. And it is our belief that addressing
complex and nuanced factors such as climate change and social
issues in a meaningful way requires an active and engaged
investment approach. It is through detailed analysis and regular
interaction with companies that we believe true progress and sound
investment decisions can be made,” said Paul LaCoursiere, Global
Head of ESG Investments.
Janus Henderson’s pioneering Global Sustainable Equities
franchise has an extensive track record in sustainable investing
with its first product launch in 1991, and the firm was a founding
signatory of the UN Principles for Responsible Investment in 2006.
With this launch, the firm is building on that commitment by
expanding a global ESG framework, which supports the investment
teams behind these ETFs.

Equity and fixed income securities are subject to various
risks including, but not limited to, market risk, credit risk and
interest rate risk.
Foreign securities are subject to additional risks including
currency fluctuations, political and economic uncertainty,
increased volatility, lower liquidity and differing financial and
information reporting standards, all of which are magnified in
emerging markets.
Securitized products, such as mortgage- and asset-backed
securities, are more sensitive to interest rate changes, have
extension and prepayment risk, and are subject to more credit,
valuation and liquidity risk than other fixed-income
securities.
Natural resources industries can be significantly affected by
changes in natural resource supply and demand, energy and commodity
prices, political and economic developments, environmental
incidents, energy conservation and exploration projects.
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) or sustainable
investing considers factors beyond traditional financial analysis.
This may limit available investments and cause performance and
exposures to differ from, and potentially be more concentrated in
certain areas than, the broader market.
Actively managed portfolios may fail to produce the intended
results. No investment strategy can ensure a profit or eliminate
the risk of loss.
Not all products or services are available in all
jurisdictions.
