Our mission reflects our commitment to our clients, our team, and to the universal commons. We analyze investment risks and opportunities from a broader perspective, because we believe understanding environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors is fundamental to valuing a company. We strive to be responsible stewards of our clients’ assets by seeking competitive investment returns from portfolios of companies that can contribute to and benefit from sustainable, global growth. We use our voice as shareowners to improve companies’ practices and to advance the global dialogue toward a sustainable economy.
