CPR  AM EXPANDS ITS RANGE OF THEMATIC EQUITY FUNDS 
WITH THE LAUNCH OF CPR INVEST – FOOD FOR GENERATIONS

Paris, 19 October 2017 – In the wake of World Food Day, CPR AM announces the launch of Food for Generations, a subfund of CPR Invest, a SICAV fund governed by Luxembourg law that invests mainly in international equities throughout the food value chain. This fund fills out a thematic range of funds with almost 5 billion euros in assets under management. Food for Generations is managed by Stéphane Soussan and co-managed by Anne Le Borgne, who specialise, respectively, in agriculture and new consumer trends. The fund incurs a risk of loss of invested capital.

9.7 billion! That’s the number of human beings expected to be on earth in 2050, or 2.2 billion more than today, all of whom will have to be fed. Against a backdrop of scarcer resources, we will have to produce more, better and more sustainably. Not only is demand rising, eating habits are shifting. A nutritious diet, fragmented meals, the quest for pleasure and experiences, and a concern for quality and transparency are all factors that are having an increasing impact on consumption.
