Active Stewardship is what sets us apart from others
To us, stewardship and sustainability and financial returns are fundamentally intertwined.
Stewardship is a critical element of our philosophy and is at the heart of all of our investment strategies. We have been a leader in all aspects of stewardship and sustainability since 2009, when we became an early signatory to the UN-supported Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI).
We have been consistently rated highly by the PRI and were one of the first asset managers to sign up to the ambitious new UK Stewardship Code.
