Responsible investment is integral to our investment philosophy and approach.
We believe that considering ESG factors while investing with purpose and discipline across all portfolios is critical to delivering sustainable growth and reducing risks for each client we serve.
With a strong heritage of successfully connecting our clients to global investment opportunities, and proven expertise in connecting the developed and developing world, we have a unique perspective on ESG factors.
We combine these strengths with a long-term commitment to our clients and a structured and disciplined investment approach, to deliver solutions that support their financial ambitions while transitioning to a more sustainable future.
Our long-term commitment to responsible investment is put into practice in three ways:
1. Integrated ESG Research: ESG analysis is incorporated alongside financial analysis to quantify a company’s potential risks and returns over the longer-term.
2. Active Ownership: We are active stewards on behalf of our clients. We were an early PRI signatory in 2006 committing to the six principles of responsible investment.
3. Policy & Advocacy: We actively engage with regulators and policy makers individually and collectively with other investors on systemic sustainable investment issues.
