Impact calculator

Quantifying positive impact

The impact calculator illustrates the underlying positive impact that companies in WHEB’s investment portfolio help create.

Since 2016, we have sought to quantify the underlying positive impact associated with the companies in WHEB’s investment portfolio. Our Impact Calculator is a tool we’ve developed which illustrates the positive impact associated with a given amount of money invested in the WHEB Strategy.

This positive impact is ultimately generated by the end users of the products and services; the owner of the electric vehicle or the homeowner who buys renewable power. Our investors are aligned with these positive impacts by investing in the companies that manufacture these products.¹

¹Investors in WHEB’s strategy are aligned with these positive impacts by investing in companies that form part of crucial supply chains that manufacture these products and provide these services. WHEB’s investments contribute to the attainment of the impact, however, are not solely responsible. The impact is therefore referred to as ‘associated’.
