Newsletter – April 2022

Our theme this month is private income investments – an asset class that is quietly becoming one of the fastest-growing parts of the investment world.

The Booster Wine Group, now the Tahi Fund’s largest investment, is an amalgamation of four prominent New Zealand wine companies spanning the Hawke’s Bay, Nelson, Marlborough, and Central Otago regions. This month we showcase the upgraded facility at the Awatere River Winery in Marlborough.

This month we take a deep look at SRI vs ESG investing. A growing number of investors want to encourage companies to act responsibly in addition to delivering financial returns. ESG and SRI are often used interchangeably, but have important differences.

This issue covers the importance of being invested, through the highs and lows, over the longer term.

Responsible Investing at Booster and our backing of two climate-focused investor initiatives – the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and the Investor Group on Climate Change (IGCC).
