    We have been made aware that there are external parties falsely claiming to carry out financial services on behalf of Goldman Sachs (including Goldman Sachs Asset Management International and Goldman Sachs International) in order to market fake investment products and to solicit monetary payments. These external parties may pose as Goldman Sachs through the use of fraudulent communications via email, instant messaging or phone, as well as through the use of fake brochures and other documents containing Goldman Sachs branding and logos.
    The Financial Conduct Authority of UK has issued warnings about these fraudulent activities which can be found here and here.
    It is important to know that any communication you receive from Goldman Sachs would only come from an @gs.com e-mail address and/or be found on the goldmansachs.com website. Further information regarding how you can protect yourself from fraudulent activity online and how you can contact us about this can be found on the Goldman Sachs Security page, available here.

    Goldman Sachs Thematic Equity Investing

    Invest in the Future.

    Sweeping technological, environmental and demographic megatrends are changing how we live and work. We think they should change how we invest, too. Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s thematic equity strategies seek to invest in the future by reaching beyond backward-looking benchmarks to identify innovative, attractively-valued companies aligned with durable secular growth trends.

    Thematic Investing with Megatrends

    Technological Innovation

    Over the next decade we expect technology to have a bigger influence on the global economy that it did over the last one. We look beyond today’s mega-cap tech giants to find the tech leaders of tomorrow.

    Environmental Sustainability

    The world is on the cusp of a revolution in sustainability that we think will have the scale of the industrial revolution and the speed of the digital one.

    The Future of Health Care

    New technology has cut healthcare costs and improved patient outcomes. We focus on the growth potential of advances in genomics, precision medicine, digital health care and robotic surgery.

    New Age Consumers

    Millennials are the world’s largest and wealthiest generation, and catering to their spending patterns and preferences is key for global companies.

    Fundamental Equity

    2022 Top Equity Ideas

    With expectations of lower returns across asset classes, we believe investors will need more actively managed equities to meet their total return targets in the years ahead. In this changing macro environment, where inflation is likely to lead to rising interest rates, equity investors will need access to secular growth megatrends while navigating inflation.

    Goldman Sachs Thematic Equity Investing

    Deep Experience, High Conviction

    With $16 billion AUM in thematic strategies, our Fundamental Equity team draws on decades of experience and a deep bench of traders, researchers and portfolio managers to separate the enduring trends from the fads. This lets us build high conviction portfolios with high alpha potential.

    The Trends That Matter

    Our actively-managed thematic funds are based on four megatrends that we believe will increasingly drive economic growth in a low-growth world: technological advances, environmental sustainability, changing consumer habits and the future of health care.

    With Disruption Comes Opportunity 

    The companies aligned with these trends are disrupting the status quo. Yet many traditional equity strategies are underexposed to them and the growth potential they offer. Our thematic funds focus on innovation by investing in the disruptors.

    Rooted in Research

    These trends are specific enough to track but broad enough to afford us discretion about what we want to own. This lets our investors carefully evaluate each company’s competitive advantage and the quality of its management team while monitoring stock valuations. Our staff of 80 is spread across six global regions, giving us insight into the way these trends are affecting different markets.

    This document has been issued by Goldman Sachs International, authorised by the Prudential Regulation Authority and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority.

    Targets are subject to change and are current as of the date of this presentation. Targets are objectives and do not provide any assurance as to future results. Diversification does not protect an investor from market risk and does not ensure a profit.  Prospective investors should inform themselves as to any applicable legal requirements and taxation and exchange control regulations in the countries of their citizenship, residence or domicile which might be relevant. This material is not intended to be used as a general guide to investing, or as a source of any specific investment recommendations, and makes no implied or express recommendations concerning the manner in which any client’s account should or would be handled, as appropriate investment strategies depend upon the client’s investment objectives.

    Assets Under Supervision (AUS) includes assets under management and other client assets for which Goldman Sachs does not have full discretion.

    Key Risks:

    Market risk - the value of assets in the Portfolio is typically dictated by a number of factors, including the confidence levels of the market in which they are traded.

    contingent Convertible ("CoCo") Bond Risk - investment in this particular type of bond may result in material losses to the Portfolio based on certain trigger events. The existence of these trigger events creates a different type of risk from traditional bonds and may more likely result in a partial or total loss of value or alternatively they may be converted into shares of the issuing company which may also have suffered a loss in value.

    Operational risk - material losses to the Portfolio may arise as a result of human error, system and/or process failures, inadequate procedures or controls.

    Liquidity risk - the Portfolio may not always find another party willing to purchase an asset that the Portfolio wants to sell which could impact the Portfolio's ability to meet redemption requests on demand.

    Exchange rate risk - changes in exchange rates may reduce or increase the returns an investor might expect to receive independent of the performance of such assets. If applicable, investment techniques used to attempt to reduce the risk of currency movements (hedging), may not be effective. Hedging also involves additional risks associated with derivatives.

    For full description of risks please refer to the Prospectus.
