Summary

Brown Advisory Sustainable Growth (available as a US mutual fund, an Irish UCITS, and an exchange-traded fund) has established managers who effectively blend growth-stock investing with environmental, social, and governance thinking in ways that should help the strategy through a recent rough patch. That said, changes to Morningstar’s assessment of excess return opportunity mean that many of this strategy's Morningstar Medalist Ratings have changed with this update even in the absence of substantial changes to pillar ratings or fund costs.
