Environmental, social, and governance ("ESG") factors, in our opinion, have a direct and significant impact on investment outcomes.

As long-term investors, we think that by keeping a careful eye on ESG throughout the investment lifecycle, we may avoid unnecessary risk and more effectively spot lucrative possibilities. By incorporating ESG into our investment process, we can better ensure that our interests are aligned with those of our clients, their beneficiaries, and the larger community. ESG also perfectly complements our dedication to top-notch bottom-up investing analysis.
