About GSIWX

The Goldman Sachs International Equity ESG Fund Class R6 is an international equity mutual fund that prioritizes environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations in its investment process. Managed by a seasoned team at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, the fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of non-U.S. companies that demonstrate strong adherence to ESG criteria. Its investment approach seeks to identify firms with robust sustainability practices across developed markets outside the United States, aiming to deliver long-term capital appreciation while promoting responsible business conduct. This fund stands out by integrating ESG analysis directly into security selection, potentially favoring companies with lower environmental impact, superior governance standards, and positive social contributions. It conducts active ownership practices, including proxy voting on ESG issues to influence company behavior. The fund typically maintains a core portfolio diversified across regions and sectors, reflecting its broad international mandate. By combining traditional financial analysis with ESG screening, it plays a significant role for investors emphasizing both global diversification and sustainability in their investment strategy.
