Osmosis Launches the MoRE World Resource Efficiency Fund

Osmosis Launches the MoRE World Resource Efficiency Fund PR Newswire LONDON, October 23, 2012 LONDON, October 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- New UCITS fund aims to deliver superior returns by identifying resource efficiency in public equities Osmosis Investment Management has launched the first UCITS fund to directly address resource efficiency in a measurable, objective and consistent manner. The combination of a rapidly growing population and expanding consumer classes is escalating demand for goods and services just as the constraints on resource supply are accelerating. The efficient use of resources has always been a feature of a well-managed, forward thinking business. However, until now, there has not been an explicit, objective metric from which resource efficiency - the ability to create more output from less input - can be identified at a company level. Osmosis has developed their Model of Resource Efficiency (MoRE) to answer this challenge. MoRE is a quantitative process that uses public data to measure and compare resource efficiency amongst the world's largest companies. Resource efficient companies tend to produce above average return on assets and equity, better asset yields and ultimately greater shareholder value. The Osmosis MoRE World Resource Efficiency Fund (PGOMWFA:ID) is a long only portfolio of the most resource efficient large cap global businesses from across the worlds developed economies.
