Responsibility

Responsible investing

Sustainability at the heart of your growth strategy

There are a handful of factors that we believe high-growth companies have in common. One of which is purpose. More stakeholders than ever expect companies to step up when it comes to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) issues. And our investment strategy expects the same.

We believe that a company's commitment to ESG is a solid indicator of its long-term sustainable value creation. This is why responsible investing is fundamental in our approach.

03. Contribute
