Our Investment Approach

ESG Integration

Our focus is to seek attractive risk-adjusted returns for our clients and our analysis of environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, among a number of other material factors, supports this goal. By incorporating ESG risks and opportunities, we can gain better insight into the investments we make, allowing for a more holistic understanding of complex risk and opportunity, in the pursuit of maximizing returns for our clients.

Stewardship

We regularly partner with stakeholders to encourage improved transparency and sustainable practices in pursuit of minimizing risks and maximizing returns for our clients.
