About us

Who we are

Established in 1975, we are an asset manager with a deep heritage and a vision for the future. We are focused on mobilising and scaling capital in support of a more sustainable world for our clients and for the world.

Operating in London and New York, we aim to provide an international perspective, attuned to cultural sensitivities and sustainability. With an expanding global audience of institutional and professional investors and a carefully curated investment offering, we ensure that we stay flexible and focused on serving our clients’ investment purpose.

As society, governments and investors demand more responsible action, we understand that it can create challenges for organisations to reshape and transform their business to deliver the positive and actionable sustainable results they need. We provide insight and advice on ESG and sustainability to our clients to help them overcome these challenges and drive a positive impact on the world.

Our approach to Sustainable Investing

Performance through purpose. Purpose through performance.

We believe that companies whose purpose aligns with sustainable development will out-perform financially. Moreover, in order for companies to fulfil their purpose, they need to be able to deliver performance in line with stakeholder expectations.

Driving real-world Impact

We believe the value of an investment depends not only on its financial return but also on the world's state in the future. While retaining flexibility, we look for enduring, long-term impact, are patient and keep a steady course. We work with our clients to understand their requirements and customise solutions to create their desired impact.

Meaningful ESG investment analysis & engagement

We have a unique thematic approach to investing. Our data-driven approach, expert judgement and deep experience contributes to alpha generation. Our bottom-up analysis assesses how sustainability factors are a key performance driver for investee companies. We engage proactively with investee firms, with humility and respect, to help guide them towards higher incremental returns, an improved ESG profile, or better resilience.
