Marco Pirondini, Head of US Equities for Amundi US, said: "These new Funds leverage investment experience across our firm, including our Global Equity team and Equity Research team in Boston, as well as the ESG expertise of the broader Amundi organization. Each Fund offers a focused strategy aimed at capitalizing on important global themes in both Growth and Value equities. As value stocks appear to be returning to favor with the global economic recovery, a portfolio focused on identifying companies that we believe operate sustainable business models and adhere to the Fund's ESG criteria, may be attractive to long-term investors. Our view is that companies with innovative business strategies and strong or improving ESG profiles should continue to play an important role in investor portfolios."
