Putting ESG to work

How we put responsible investment at the heart of portfolios

Our beliefs

We believe environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors are material to investment performance and a potential risk factor for issuers.

We also understand that investment opportunities may be revealed through thoughtful ESG analysis. Over the longer term, the move to more sustainable economies will require responsible investors that can identify and support ESG leaders, drive the transition and help clients to protect and grow their investment portfolios.

Scoring model

Building a robust scoring model for responsible investors.

Our approach to ESG measurement has evolved into a hybrid methodology that seeks to combine the best of qualitative and quantitative techniques. Read more about how our system of audit and challenge can help us expand coverage and respond to changes in real time.
