* Data not provided for 2013 and 2015.
** Data for 2016 is a Statista calculation based on a distribution of the total assets under management of funds by category (rounded to one decimal place).

Responsible investment is defined by EUROSIF as "any type of investment process that combines investors’ financial objectives with their concerns about Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues."
The source adds further comments about the water funds: "Funds investing worldwide in shares of companies focused on the water related sector, such as water supply and treatment, water technology, environmental services and mineral water. Funds that invest in similar sectors but are not equity funds (e.g. bonds, money market or guaranteed funds) have also been classified under this sub-category."
