Head of fund selection Sheridan Admans commented: “The growing importance and complexity of ESG and sustainable investing means that as fund selectors we have to ensure that we have the expertise and experience required to find, analyse and offer only the best-in-class sustainable funds to our customers.

“While Tillit is not an investment platform solely focused on offering sustainable investment solutions, we are committed to continuing to enhance and improve our fund selection processes in this area.
