Recognition of Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) issues
We consider Environmental, Social and Governance issues to be important factors when analysing a company’s sustainability and we strive to incorporate these principles into our overall investment approach.
We have established a dedicated committee to discuss the key policies relating to ESG issues on a firm-wide basis. Our ESG committee includes members from Investment Management and Research, Client Services, and Corporate Office divisions.
