Bedford Row Capital will create new, dual-currency managed portfolio certificates under the Orestes brand, with funds invested in companies that have a positive impact on the environment and society.

The programme shows how substantial capital can be attracted to support innovative technology and investments.

Levy said: “Actively managed certificates represent the most efficient and cost-effective way for investors to gain exposure to a diversified pool of high impact companies. The focus on sustainable income is designed to provide both long term inflation proof income and high impact, measurable investments.”

Investors can be attracted by restricting the way funds will be used, for example by ensuring they are only allocated to environmentally beneficial projects.
