ESG – it's just good business
We believe in taking an active ownership stake in a business and accepting the responsibility that entails. As long-term owners of businesses, we care about the things that determine long-term performance.
These are the extra-financial inputs, like customer trust, human capital and environmental awareness that we believe support strong businesses. By integrating material environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into the assessment of investment opportunities, we believe we are better able to understand and avoid the risks of unsustainable businesses whilst identifying the hidden value opportunities in responsibly managed businesses. We actively engage with investee companies, challenging and encouraging management teams to manage material ESG risks and opportunities.
