Investing responsibly
We believe that a focus on ESG considerations and ethical conduct is an integral part of good risk management and we take this responsibility seriously.
The proactive management of ESG activities improves a company’s culture and employee engagement, underpinning sound long-term business performance. It is not only the right thing to do, it’s the financially responsible thing to do.
