Sustainability In Our Investment Process

Sustainability is a key lever of our approach to capital protection and value creation, and a way of doing business that we believe helps us seize opportunities and mitigate risk, where relevant. Our approach to integrating sustainability in our investment activities encompasses the following key strategies:

  • How We Invest

    Integrating sustainability across the investement life cycle

  • Where We Invest

    Putting sustainability to work across our portfolio

We approach sustainability integration the same way we approach any investment decision: through a materiality lens. For us, this is not a box-checking exercise. It starts with our commitment to protect capital and create value for our clients and consists of identifying what is most relevant to a business and its long-term performance.”
